I have disconnected the trans side when I dropped the engine. Now I want to take the axle off to inspect the CV joints.
I have removed the 4 bolts from the hub side but the unit is still fighting me to come out. I did see the pins holding the other side in and figured it just took some force. After running out of force, I checked the Haynes manual and it seems to say I need to take off the large central nut and cotter pin on the other side. Before I go this route, any advice? Thanks.

Thanks!!
This forum is amazing. Next question. If I try and turn the nut, do I clamp the axle from turning or can I run a screwdriver through holes on the outer plate ie does this plate move with the nut? Yes , I am that new at this thanks again |
