A used CV joint would be a mistake.

Replace both axles with rebuilt ones.

Pull the axle and stuff a rag in the transmission case hose to keep the spider gears in place.

You might have a leak in the vacuum hose from the intake manifold to the brake booster or you might have a leak in the brake booster diaphragm.

I believe that's rayman on probetalk.

For less courteous responses, but in the proper forum, try posting this in the Forced Induction forum.

Try searching as well, none of us would be offended if you search and THEN ask a question. Some apparently get offended when newbs are told to search, however, I am not one of those.
