    I have a vibration in the front end and throwing oil from the boot, does any body know where I can find a blow up for reference in order to dismantle and any advice would be appreciated.

    Replace the cv or have it rebuilt. Not real hard to pull out with some mechanical ability

    For starters, you ought to post this in the 2nd Gen forums. But yeah, you've got a blown CV boot and therefore the axle has gone. Not a very difficult or expensive thing to do yourself. The part is like $50 for the 1st Gen. I can link you the 1st Gen write-up on it but I've never done it on a 2nd.

    For real though, click into the 2nd Generation forums and search those for "cv axle" and you'll find all you need.
