CV Joint
Anyone know how difficult it is to replace a CV joint in a 95 aspire.
Thanks in advance. Dan |

Re: CV Joint
It is easier to replace the whole axle than replace the cv joint.

Re: CV Joint
It's fairly difficult. You have to take the wheel bearing nut loose. It's torqued to about 140 lb./ft. Take the lower ball joint off. Push the hub off the drive axle and with a prybar pry the CV joint out of the tranny being careful not to damage the oil seal. If you have any doubts about it I would have it done. If you start the job and get stuck and have to take it to a mechanic it will be VERY EXPENSIVE.

Re: CV Joint
Auto Zone or Advanced Auto have a tool loaner program. O'Riley's is starting this also.
You will need jack stands and a floor jack also. |
