I know that they just don't go and that in theory there are no replacement inner DOJ's as such.... but, are we really sure that nobody makes them?

 

Reason i ask is that i got two nice axles with good outer CV's and no inner DOJ's due to blown bellows, would be nice to find just the inner DOJ's to fix them and keep them as a backup.

 

sure you can get complete axles off junkyards and new ones easily in the USA, but I am located in Italy

Subaru does sell OE parts for rebuilding axles here in America, I remember seeing the bearings and cages available.

 

Not sure in your location.  When you say bellows, you mean the boot?  If thats the case they sell replacement boot kits. 

 

If you have other spare axles or can find any one who has spares with blown outers and good inners, you can just swap the shaft out and put the good ends on.

i haven't heard of parts.  Shawn would know the answer since he's familiar with marshall who rebuilds them.

 

regrease and boot them, not a big deal.  they last the life of the car.  200,000 miles (320,000 km) axles are no big deal if they're OEM subaru axles.

Tnxs guys and Ok, guess i wasnt so clear..... essentially have two axles with good outer CV's but NO DOJ's.... strange but true, long story.

and sure, boots/bellows are not a problem, i buy them at the subaru dealer, they are the best quality indeed.

 

bottom line, am trying to acquire JUST THE DOJ. Never seen them sold alone but googling up and down I discovered this aussie site that shows "Inner CV" available.

look in the subaru section and see them listed next to "outer cv" and "shaft assembly", so sounds like this guys do sell them separately.

 

trouble is australia is a bit far, wonder if they are availabl elsewhere.
