i sheared the bolts that attach the cv joint to the spindle at the parade autocross...i assume they backed out slightly and when i was shifting into 3rd on a left hand sweeper...boom...that was it and i had to park it... took it apart and was hoping to wire tie it while it is out of the vehicle where it is easier to work on but getting it back in with the spindle attached is not working....any suggestions aside from dropping the motor....?

Yes it should be possible.
You should have enough flop in the CVs to angle it enough. I have seen (felt) some CVs that have less travel than others. Are you not getting enough rotation in the outer CV to angle the axle down below the tranny? Or when you tie them up above the tranny to drop the engine? |
