When I removed the front stuts the driveshafts came out..When I put in the the new struts I just guided the driveshafts in as we tilited the strut in place..It must not be that simple.

The wheels are RPK 038....Cast cheapos.

I Fixed it!!! The drive shafts were not all the way in...I just tapped them a bit and they seated and sealed.

I scored on the wheels. With Toyo tires 315 in the rear...They were $2590 that includes Tax, Mounting, Balancing and Freight. Am I alowd to post were I got them?...I am new and know this forum is beyond strict.
