So no hijack...
I have to replace both swing arm bushings and ...."while I'm there" I should grease and check the CV's since I need to crack the two half shafts completely off both the trans and the swing arm. 1. Take off the trans side and just break of the stub axle once its off the car? I've never taken them off the car before so unknown torque and rust. What is the easiest way? |
