Calm down and check to see if you removed the bolts..
If you did, take out yer dentures and pull again..... Our CV joint removal process is a piece of cake compared to those abomination designs used by front wheel drive cars..... |

QUOTE(RobW @ Jun 20 2009, 12:02 PM)  ... must resist the urge to pry.... why? they have gaskets, which you are going to replace, yes? I've never experienced any adverse effects from tapping in a thin, stiff putty knife at the gasket joint and using that to gently pry the pins loose. Maybe I've just been lucky so I should probably say I don't officially recommend this method. But the CV's themselves are harder than the hammers of hell and you won't hurt them. The flanges are similarly heat-treated. |

QUOTE(RobW @ Jun 20 2009, 11:13 AM) Looks like you pried too hard. You thread was how to seperate the CV joints. You obviously pried sooooo hard the entire engine came loose!!! So I guess you haven't lost any strength... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/lol-2.gif) Eric |
