Rear axle problem .

Does anyone know of a good place to have a rear axle or cv joint replaced in south east Michigan ? All of the technicions at RODGERS have moved on.

DTS on Groesbeck has history with some pretty high end race cars, and while I did talk with their top tech I didn’t have the work done. So I cannot verify their work. I can assure you their was no one with competency at Rogers for opening up the carrier. They didn’t know how to set lash and didn’t try, they just went for the new ring and pinion and took there best shot which was always worse.

If you are just looking to replace the half shafts I would trust a Cadillac dealer that’s done a bunch of CTS V’s. They are actually pretty simple to replace.

I do my own work. If you are going to try Livernois I would give Samantha a call in Brighton at Vector motor sports. She runs a low 9 sec 2014 stang she drives on the street, and she would stand behind the warranty. Again I cannot confirm the work, but I can confirm those that have needed warranty work it was done without a challenge. I can’t say the same for Livernois, but that’s the just the street talk I hear.

Another option although it would be probably the higher of the two would be to stop by Ken’s in Wixom (Beck Rd.) and if they are not too busy maybe they might do a deal. Last I chatted they were heads down getting final specs for the C8 SC, and exhaust.
