Hey guys, I’m attempting to remove my rear axle sides to replace the axle seals. I have removed the left side, but the right side is stuck. I have tried rotating the drive shaft a little bit each way to see if I could free it up, nothing.
When I was yanking at the axle to remove it, I think I must have popped the CV knuckle out that was closest to the axle. So, its hanging by the boot now.
When I look through the axle (pic attached) from the left side, I can see the right side plugged in there.
How can I get this right axle out? I tried lightly tapping a piece of wood with a rubber mallet to push it out, but nothing.
Should I take the boot off of the right side? What do I need to fix the CV boot knuckle?
I don’t have a service manual, this was supposed to be easy according to youtube 🙂
Any help you guys can provide would be great.
