MatthewCapodieci Posted January 4, 2022 Report Share Posted January 4, 2022 Hi guys so I have a 1982 720 4wd and I have torn cv boots so I figure I should just replace the whole cv axle considering the truck has 300k…. Anyway I am having a very hard time finding them, does anyone know perhaps a different axle that’s fits or does anyone know if a 1983 axle fits cause I can find those everywhere. Also does anyone know a good radiator for this truck? Quote Link to comment
SDP45 Posted January 10, 2022 Report Share Posted January 10, 2022 I wish I could help you. I was fortunate to find a lower mileage parts truck, though it had the engine previous to the Z22. It made it easy to rob parts from without trying to find a new equivalent. Dan Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted January 10, 2022 Report Share Posted January 10, 2022 Previous to the Z22 would be the 1980 720 with the L20B. Did you swap the CV joints into your '82 by any chance? Quote Link to comment
bottomwatcher Posted January 11, 2022 Report Share Posted January 11, 2022 I have an 82 also. Axles are NLA. You can still get boots. It is a collosailly messy job but you can pull the axles apart, regrease and reassemble. Doesn't matter the miles of the truck the front cvs usually only have a few on them. Quote Link to comment
