do you mean you want to remove the cv joint from the shaft?

if so then just get a big hammer (preferably copper or hide) and remove the rubber boot and simply just knock the end / joint off by hitting it and holding the shaft at the same time with your other hand!

 

[tenfoloten]

yes correctly..
it is difficult second you?
thanks a lot boby

dude, every car in the whole world have got a cv joint!

 

[davey red.r]

he said exit,not exsist:doh:

 

[tenfoloten]

exit,not exist

 

[tenfoloten]

unfortunately I can not do that
thanks odin

have you got pics where i do use the hammer?

 

[pulsarboby]

here you go, hit the cv joint where either of the two arrows are pointing. hold the joint straight when you hit it and give it one sharp wallop and it will come off

Another way is to put the shaft in a vice and pull the end off. I've taken many drive shaft out in the past and after a quick tug on the shaft it's just popped out in my hand. Btw, the method with the hammer is the best way of doing it.

I have tryed another today..but not exit

 

[tenfoloten]

not exit not exit and not exit..
I have tryed all your method but not exit..

I hate driveshaft..
if I don't pull out the joint,I can't remove the engine from the car

 

[davey red.r]

its got to come out!
this is getting me mad now:lol:
give it a wallop,i iknow sometimes they can be a bit of a tw*t to get off, but all come off eventually.

davey;-)

but in the vice I insert the driveshaf or the cv joint?
in the vice I have insert the driveshaft

 

[vss irvine]

yes put the driveshaft in the vice,
remove the cv boot(rubber)
hold the cv joint in you hand (inline with the shaft)
pull the cv joint away from the driveshaft(with your hand) and AT THE SAME TIME
hit the cv joint away from the shaft.


if it doesnt come off, hit it harder, or use a bigger hammer.

if it still doesnt come off, ill sell you some loose cv joints!

 

[pulsarboby]

aaaah! are you saying you cannot get the cv joint out of the hub assembly? is it jammed / stuck in the splines in the hub?

 

[tenfoloten]
