It's almost time to change my cv joint.

Questions about axles, transmissions, differentials, pretty much anything that connects the engine to the wheels, this is the place for those questions.

Need some imput on how to change this.
It would be great to have some pictures.
In the process I will change the ball joints aswell. It's been 5 years.

:withstupid:

You can get Reman half shafts for prolly a little more than the cost of a replacement joint, plus your time and effort. And you will get both ends replaced. Save your energy for the ball joints, and LCA bushings.

I picked up a "New" driver side axle from Capriotto Auto parts for $50, much easier than changing out CV joints....
