I destroyed my inner CV joint while installing my engine. I figure now is a good time to replace all of the CV joints.

Can I remove the outer CV from the stub axel with the trailing arm on the car?

I really want to avoid replacing the rear wheel bearings again.

BTW these are the 69-73 911 types not the stock ones.

You should not have to disturb the bearing or the alignment. Remove the inner CV from the tranny, remove the nut on the end of the stub axle, and pull the whole drive shaft out. You may have to remove heat exchangers or loosten the shocks to get enough room to get the shaft out of there. If you can remove the inner CV from the shaft, that may also help.

Thanks Dave (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
I wanted to remove the outer cv joint from the stub axel. I removed the bolts but it seems like the pins are sticking. I guess it's just a matter of brute force.
