Today I will be making a post about replacing a CV Joint on a Ford Edge SEL. I'm making this post to explain why it's much cheaper to replace it yourself and not to have to pay a mechanic a lot of money to do it for you. This job would be rated at a 6 out of 10 for difficulty but with some time and patience you can do this yourself. This is more difficult than changing your oil but much easier than many advanced repairs. If you have never done this before take your time and don't get in a hurry. You don't have to watch a YouTube video to do this if you are mechanically inclined, but again be patient and don't get frustrated cause that's when you make mistakes. In this post I'm going to go through a breakdown of costs to do it yourself compared to shop costs, the process of what you have to do, and some pointers to keep an eye out for. If you find this to be beneficial please share it around and don't forget to comment! Enjoy! Cost Breakdown If you go to your local shop they will charge
