Can anyone tell me where the cv joint is? Also, how would i go about replacing them. I am also replacing my front wheel beaings; should i change out the hub at the same time. i heard this lengthens the life of the bearings.

the CV joints connect the hubs to the transmission(right side also uses a intermedite shaft)
mine broke earlier this year:

i also had to loosen the sway bar, and a jack under the hub helped for position. changing the hubs and wheel studs is not a bad idea if you are doing the bearing and CVs with it. i bought a new CV joint for 110 at autozone, pretty good price, i would buy new not remanufactiored.
