Re: Axle Breaking... (Mr EGg)
Normal use.
Also the boot does tear after a while and dirt, debris, and sand will get in there. Once that happens it is only a matter of time before the CV fails. To prolong the life of your boot you can avoid cranking your wheel all the way to the end whenever possible.
"dropping" or "slammin" your car can also have adverse effects on your axles.
