Does anyone have a CV joint to hand?

If so can you count the balls and tell me how many you can see.

Really hoping its 6-ball ;)

If you have a 6 ball CV then this company:

www.cpsdrivelink.co.uk/

offers a postal refurb service for £40 per joint (plus postage). However they only have a 6 ball machine so they cannot do the later ones (I had hoped they were all 6 ball)
