    Front CV axle movement

    no the stub shaft that goes into the diff does not pull out or move. just the housing that the rubber boot clamps to. i'm not sure what that piece is really called that the arrow is pointing too. i'll just call it the housing. but i can move that housing quite a bit maybe 1/4 " .
