So I'm about to start the tear down of the rear end to swap out the axle that has a blown CV joint.
But the issue I will have is how do I keep the axle from turning while I try to loosen the Axle bolt's out of the Transmission? Any Tips? I really want to make it to the ECC so I have to get this swap done as quickly as possible. Thanks in Advance. |

BTW. I use an air ratchet to remove the CV bolts. Takes them right out. But I don't think I would use any power tools unless you have had the bolts out within the last 2 or 3 years. If you've never had them out before, you don't know how hard they might be stuck - and there is no better way to strip the head than to use a power tool.
