What are CV coolers.
Ok I know that it may be pretty self explanatory what they do but how do they work and does any one have a pic. I just saw them for sale on the net.
And am curious.

Ahh thanks for that $2.63 homebrand baja I knew you would set me on the right track so do you have a couple spare at your joint... sure could use
some but of course you gotta supply the VB to go in them as well :kiss

I had a couple, but I sold them for beer money. The downside was with out the coolers the beer got warm so I blew my money! I ended up having to
make some new ones out of bark and tiewire bush mechanics style! Not the same and got soggy on third beer.
My advice is if you do get hold of some, hang on to them................
I have heard of some made from paddlepop sticks...but as they say u get wat u pay for...
(btw if anyone is reading this.. yes I am dribbling and no I don't know wat they are either...... :P).... |

Rework your cv's so they don't get hot and they will be lighter :thumb

I have NEVER seen or heard of them before either...
but if Your CV Joints are filled with Lithium based Moly grease they won't run hot... too much lubrication.. and low friction..
