i noticed in a recent break job the axle boot was torn. Under warranty so i got a new one.

In the process of the cv removal i broke the old circlip that was on the input shaft that goes into the transmission. Now on this car their is a shaft coming to the passenger side from the transmission and supported by a bearing and 3 bolts. Now the CV goes over that shaft, but where it goes over there is now no way for the CV to lock without that circlip.

Where can i go to get a replacement? or just dealer?

Appreciate it.

Its missing the cir clip that looks like the one next to it i believe (it is too thick to fit into the groove - got from a junkyard)
