Axle issue, please help!!!
So I broke the inner CV joint on the driver side axle last weekend, & since my driver side axle is an older Hendrix anti hop axle, I am having issues finding a replacement for it. Of course G force makes their kits, but their larger axle is for the passenger side which doesn't solve my issue, & not only that they are out of stock for 3+ weeks. I can always buy a used OEM axle, but I would prefer to stick with my anti hop axle.
My question is, can I use a CV joint from a used OEM axle & slap it on the Hendrix axle, or is the axle even rebuildable? I NEED to get my car back on the road ASAP... Yes I used the search function & couldn't find any concrete info.
Thanks in advance...

Thats what it looks to be, the housing is fine, but I can move the axle around on the diff side. I called around today & couldn't find any info as to weather or not I can just get a new CV for it. How do I get in touch with Hendrix? Does the Hendrix axle use the stock CV's?

Thanks Cole. That looks like a nice kit, however I am on a budget right now, & REALLY want to get my car back on the road being that I have only owned it since the 2/13/11, I barely got to enjoy it before I broke something LOL.
Where can I get a stock replacement CV? Let my add that this car will NEVER be my track car, its purely for street fun, & cruising. My solid axle Mustang is the drag car.

I guess? I bought the car fully modded, & my buddy who sold it to me said that it has the Hendrix anti hop axle on the driver side, & he said it came fully assembled. Isn't it different than a stock shaft?

He popped a CV... I think he can just use an inner CV off the other axle that he has laying in his garage. Basically use the inner CV from a spare driver side axle to fix the broke inner CV on the Hendrix axel. It should work....

My buddy I purchased it from has a brand new stock passenger side axle that we were gonna eventually throw in because he said my passenger had a slight clicking, but I have yet to notice it. Is the inner stub interchangeable from the driver to passenger or vice versa?
