Early model Kia Rio Axle compatibility

Postby MISHI » July 27th, 2010, 4:25 pm

have a friend with a Rio that the axles have failed... and the dealer has none.

Are there any other axles that could work with this car? could hyundai axles work ( I know thay tend to share "some" parts

the whole axle or just the cv joint?
it shares parts with the cerato
or you can go to autovillage and ask for the joints it was ~150 and works perfectly
I used some other joints which lasted all of 2 months@ 300+
the auto village joint tho is just slightly longer and has to be cut maybe a quarter inch
