Fixed a CV joint that came off the half-shaft (if the circlip gets bent don't try to bend it back and hope that it'll hold fine because you'll get halfway out of your driveway before the axle separates) without undoing the axle bolt or the bolts that hold the inner joint to the diff. Also glued my headlight back together. All in all a pretty productive day.

I did the same thing last year, then realized you could save 20 bucks and just spray them with silver paint. Do it.

Started to replace a CV joint but couldn't figure out any clever ways to keep my axle from rotating to loosen the bolts on the transmission. 1st gear wouldn't hold it either, not good I don't think?

And ordered a Magnaflow 14816 just now
