ok i think my cv joint is done....i had an 18 icnh rim on the left side front and a stock one on the right for about 4 days bc on my right wheel i had 3 crossthreaded lugnuts, it started making a knocking sound then wonce i got my other rims on it stopped. But, now, my steering wheel shakes when i go over like 40 mph, and sometims that joint squeeks (not real loud), what is the worst possible scenario i am looking at to get this fixed? I Have a 93 Prelude S.

 

look at the axle
see if there is grease all over.
axles arent expensive so dont worry
and ditch the 18's, stunna.

 

say it all need replaced, control arm and all, how much i lookin at.. im goin show playa unless i get my auto switched to manual, how much u think it would cost to get a manual swap...(i think my transmission is goin bad ne way so i might need a new tranny ne way, might as well do a manual...even if it isnt a new tranny.....

 

Control arm?

I'm pretty sure you don't need to replace the control arm...

Replacing CV joints is basically a matter of getting a set of new/rebuilt axles, draining your tranny and swapping the old axles out for the new ones.
