Replace the drive axle...don't bother with a CV boot kit. V70-XC70 2000

Just change the whole drive axle and not the CV boot. www.raxles.com is the place. Call them (as no Volvo axles are on their site) and talk to Marty. I recently paid $150 for one for my front driver's side. Labor for the R&R was only $25 (but that was at my very good and very cheap indy mechanic...he said it only took him 20 minutes). That, compared to buying a CV boot kit (maybe $50 from an online parts place) about $100 from the dealer and about 1.5-2 hours of labor...so you do the math. I first tried the CV boot replacement, wasting money, as the repair would not make a shake in my steering go away. The axle replacement is a "for sure" fix. I'm totally satisfied with raxles...they have New axles with no rebuilt parts.
