My front shock bushes are worn out so I need to replace them!... I have AVO shocks, any idea where I can get them from?

And I think I need a drive shaft CV joint as mine seems to be clicking when going around corners, can you just change the joint or do you need to replace the whole shaft?

Don't know about the shocker bush, but I do know that you can change the CV joints singly. Remove from diff or hib (depending which joint) by removing 6 Torx screws & peel back the rubber boot. Inside the joint there's a circlip on the very end ov the drveshaft - take that off then just knock the joint off the end of the shaft with a hammer.

Reassembly is reverse of removal!
