So the key fobs for my 1999.5 have started working very intermittently (more often not). I thought it was a battery issue, so swapped it out, but no dice. So I pulled out the spare and... same result! Even with fresh batteries. I bought TWO different sets of replacements on Amazon, but neither will program in. Ironically, when programming, the originals work every single time. I’m wondering if there’s a fuse or a relay I should be checking. Ideas?

I just picked up a carrier from the scrap yard today. I lucked out because the R50 I got it from wasn’t on the yard manifest yet. This may be a dumb question, but is there a way to mount this to a wd21 or an R50 that doesn’t have the mounting holes already?

How did it go?

I've just ordered a couple of CV axles from RockAuto (GSP #NCV53128), @ $110 for the pair, shipped. We'll see how they do. I haven't replaced a CV axle in years, but this YouTube video seems to provide a pretty good overview of the process (if you watch it, let me know if there's anything you'd do differently):

Certainly a lot of sweat equity into this beauty! There's no better feeling than being surrounded by the evidence of your own hard work! Thanks for sharing!
