August 24, 200520 yr Hi Can I switch the left and right front CV's on a 94 Loyale? The right side is new and I want to keep the left side going until the end of the year by reversing the CV's direction of travel to stop the clicking. Sandy
August 24, 200520 yr yes you can swap them from side to side, but its not going to give you the benefit you hope... once worn, its worn..... a replacement is all that can be done. however they do last a long long time making light clicking sounds. once you start to feel vibration you have only a short time.

Hi Thanks for the comment - there's no vibration yet, but the self centring action is weak, aftter the one CV was done. The alignment went out when it was replaced. The dealer hasn't been able to get the steering wheel to point straight ahead again, so I wouldn't be surprised if he couldn't do the alignment either... Sandy
August 25, 200520 yr driving your newer loyale on bad boots will cause the same problems with the axles as in later gl models. dont even bother swapping the boots just replace it before you break both axles.
August 25, 200520 yr Hmm.. I have a real bad shake in my front end that's been getting worse.. I change both CV axles today so I'll let you know if that shake goes away.
