Its weird. 2 of my cv bolts seem soft and stripped. They all look original - as is the whole assembly. I've got all the rest out and need to get these 2 out now!

Any brilliant ideas?


Oh, I've got one - Dont sit in a puddle of brake cleaner! I burnt my behind. I had to run in and take a shower! =O

Just a reminder, if you pull the stub, don't roll the car around a bunch as the stub axle keeps the wheel bearing together.


...uh oh... I guess this means I'll be replacing my rear wheel bearings! I didn't realize it was that vital to the assembly.

I've had the axles out for quite a while as I'm doing body work, and the car has been rolled in and out of the garage quite a bit as needed for sandblasting. Oh well, I'm pretty sure I screwed up one wheel bearing when I was removing them, so I guess I'll just get them both replaced. I was prolly gonna need to do it anyway.
