i need to get my passenger side cv joint changed since it makes the clicking noise when i turn right. will this fit given that i specify the particular model (civic ej8)?

also need the boot replaced on drivers side since it has recently cracked. would this fit if i specified the car as it askes?? anybody had any experiences with ebay cv joints?

or would i be better off getting two of the CJ joints off them to replace both since its only $50 for the CJ joint. not sure how long/far the car has gone since the CJ boot cracked. or would i be better of leaving it for the mechanic to order the stuff?

if i was you i would buy two new cv joint Drive shafts it will better in the long run becasue you wont have to worry about the other one going if you just fix one...not to sure about those brands off ebay i wouldnt get them.

if it's already clicking then it's pretty much stuffed
going to cost you almost as much to service the joint than to buy a whole new shaft(remanufacturered, not brand new items from honda)
