SOURCE: 1996 geo metro, passenger side half shaft (CV

i use a 3 arm puller to force the shaft out of the hub spline (do not hammer on the cv shaft at all, you will destroy it), and either a pickle fork or a specialy designed ball joint puller to seperate the balljoint from the knuckle. if you dont have a special puller and need to save the balljoint. try using a 6 or 8 foot steel bar to pry down on the lower control arm while another person strikes the knuckle at the balljoint location. note pin retainer type balljoints have a small slot which can be spread open alittle with a cold cut chisel or larg screw driver once the cv shaft is out of the way

SOURCE: 94 mazda 626 cv shaft removal

Stick a large screwdriver or prybar between the CV housing and the transmission case, and pop it out. There is a little circlip in a groove near the end of the shaft inside the transaxle. It is there to seat the shaft and prevent it from slipping out during driving.

SOURCE: what is the difference between a cv half shaft and cv axle shaft?

They are both the same. Sometimes it is called a half shaft simply because it is for one side of the vehicle.

How do I change cv joint 1996 Buick park ave

It is cheaper and easier to replace the entire half shaft than to replace one CV joint on the half shaft. The only special tool needed is the axle nut socket. support the vehicle, remove the wheel, remove the axle nut, remove the lower ball joint, separate the lower control arm from the spindle, push the outer CV stub in from the hub, then remove the inner CV stub from the transmission. The inner has a circlip that will hold it in, you will need to get a prybar behind the flange and pry against the transmission case to get it to separate. But that's it, reverse procedure to install new half shaft making sure to torque everything back to specifications.

My volvo s60 03 isnt making any noise when I turn right or left, and there is no visible problem other than the boot being torn and grease being all over the place. Is it possible my boot is just torn and...

Yes, that's possible, especially if the joint hasn't had enough time for dirt to get inside the joint. If you remove the half shaft, you can put a new boot and clamps on it, with new grease supplied with the boot. Only thing is, the joint has to be partially disassembled, it is very messy, and takes a couple of hours. An alternative is to buy a remanufactured half shaft with both joints (inner and outer CV joints) checked for wear and new boots installed. This half shaft is ready to install-the cost of these remanned shafts is actually less than the price of one new CV joint- about $70 for a chevy half shaft as an idea of prices.

Have a plymouth breeze, every time I turn left it was making a loud clicking noise, now it sounds like a really bad loud scrubbing noise when I turned and drive starting last night. So it I cant drive it....

Probably a bad CV joint on one of your drive axles to the front wheels. You have two drive axles coming out of the transaxle, one to each front wheel, and both have an inner CV joint where they enter the transaxle, and an outer CV joint where the axles fit into the wheel hub. (A CV joint is really like the old U-joints, serving the same purpose.) A clicking noise on turning is usually a badly worn outer CV joint. The cheapest fix is to buy a remanufactured half-shaft for your car. That is the axle shaft with both CV joints at each end inspected and reconditioned with new grease and CV boots installed. You need to know which side is bad before buying. The half-shaft is sold ready to install. Someone with good mechanical skills will need to remove the old one and replace it with the new reconditioned axle shaft, or half shaft as they are also called. The last time I bought one (about two years ago) the cost was reasonable- about $65.00. That is less than the cost of one new CV joint.
Hope this helps you out.

Change c.v.boot

A new boot kit will cost about 30-45 dollars. A reman half shaft, with both CV joints inspected, greased, and new boots on it, ready to install, is about double that. Last one I bought from Napa cost me 62.00.
Is your old boot torn? Unless you are sure the CV joint is still good, I would recommend buying the half-shaft. Just one CV joint costs more than the reman. jobs.

How to change a Cv joint on a 1997 Pontiac Grandam

While the car is still on the ground remove the half shaft nut then jack the car up and support it with jack stands and remove the tire. after you get the tire off you may have to remove the break caliper and the rotor, if you have to do this now. Remove the lower ball joint nut and break apart the ball joint with a large pry bar by prying down on the lower a frame. grab the steering knuckle with both hands and pull until the half shaft is free from the bearing hub assembly. then grab the half shaft and give it a good tug to remove it from the trans axle, you may have to pry it out with a small pry bar wedged between the inner cv joint and the trans axle. at this point I would replace the entire half shaft it is cheaper and a lot easier than replacing the cv joint. installation is reversed but be careful of the splines when installing the half shaft back into the trans axle and the bearing hub. Good luck.

How much does it cost to repair a cv axle

The best option isn't to repair it, but get a rebuilt half shaft. Otherwise you run the risk of the other CV falling apart right after the new one starts putting pressure on it's joint. Never buy a new CV all by itself and try installing it to the half shaft, thats just too much work for too little gain. Most half shafts are pretty cheap and come ready to go with 2 brand new CV joints attached and ready to install.
