Default cv axle problem

the car is a 1989 hatch with the 1.5, 5 speed

i know you guys are going to bash on me for not fixing this.
the passenger side mount and the front tranny mount are not bolted just figured that out not long ago.

one day i was pulling into work (backing up in the stall) and when i turned my wheel to the right and started to back up the cv axle broke, it came out of the first boot. so i buy a cv axle and it only lasted a week and same thing happend, backing up at work and it blew. so now im pissed, had to wait on the cv axle this time, got the new one and put it in and wheen leaving the parking lot i turn right and gave out again. i know its stupid to ask but would the mounts play a big part in this? could it be anything else?

feel free to bash for my stupidity

p.s. what size are the bolts that got to the passenger side mount and the front mount?

Default Re: cv axle problem

okay thats pretty stupid. only rear and driver holding the motor? Hows about you do this right bolt those thing up asap and it should fix the problem. Your motor is slanting even though it doesnt look like. These are special bolts.Get em from honda or go to your local junk yard. Or get the same size bolts from an hardware store.
