Hello everyone!
New member, but this subject is probably as old as my vehicle(2000 Freelander 1).
I'm probably up for a change of CV Axle(s). I have a mean shudder at acceleration in the 4th gear, around 50-70km/h. Due to delivery times, price and EU, I'm looking for any half-decent manufacturers. Does anyone have any recommendations or first/second hand experiences with working aftermarket parts? I know they won't last as long, but I'd be happy with a 75% longevity.
 
Hi,

You should use GKN axles,
If you have budget issue put an used one.
Don’t put aftermarket, they doesn’t last more than 1 or 2 years on common vehicule and can be less than that on a 4x4 because of the heavy angles.

You can also change only the side that is broken with GKN parts.

Regards.

Yeah, it's for a less used daily driver, so changing yearly sounds a bit tedious. I'll try to find a more convenient supplier for GKN. I hope it doesn't come to changing both. Appreciate it!
