It's likely that ALL of your CV joints will be fine, but, for the record, I've 
mixed and matched to make better ones like you suggest. One thing that I think 
is important is to keep the sets of balls together. I believe they are matched 
in size, while different sizes might be used to make up tolerances between 
races, so don't mix up the balls.
