hey bud,

its not too bad at all. just remove the tire, take the axle nut off, remove the lower ball joint nut, pry apart the ball joint, then just get a hammer and and gradually tap outward against the axle right next to where it is inserted in the tranny. there is just a retaining clip at the end of the axle that pops in the tranny. sometimes they can be a little bit difficult and u may think that they just dont pop out but they DO. trust me, i have replaced many and did one clutch job last summer, and also a engine overhaul this spring so i have had mine out plenty of times. any problems, let me know...

Well brian mooney, Ive got a few questions for you, Before you just replace the inner cv boot, Is youre cv making a clicking sound when you are turn corners? If so I wouldnt waste youre time just replacing the boot. Cause months down the road it could break, But if its not makeing any noise, You could get away with just changing the inner boot.
