    Definitely not. Mine almost felt gritty out of the box. There was a little bit of grease in the boots, but none in the cv's. I'm glad i have the tool to release and reuse the boot clamps

    Not a huge deal, just think we should be warned so we don't blow our new axles ;)
    I've emailed Igor to clarify if there is anything else needed to complete this. the last thing we all need is the axle dumping out because of something relatively minute.

      When i picked mine up I was told that the pancake side of the axle needs to be Packed, which is why they are zip tied together. I also sent Igor an email regarding the grittyness, and mine even had minor binding upon a slight rotation while dry. I wasn't worried because these are indeed dry! After an email with Igor he told me they will free up upon packing and using.

      Never heard anything about taking boots off

        He replied back to an email I sent to him earlier and gave me a similar answer (here was his response to me):

        "Yes we include the grease packs with the axles. The is on the outside of the axles on the differential sides. Everyone should have gotten grease packs in the box with the axles. It's not a hard thing to do but very important. One pack per axle. Thanks for emailing".

          This is to be done on the outside of the axles towards the differential.
          Not on the inner side where it goes in to the hubs. Any one with questions is always able to email us: sales@catuned.com thank you!
