when i go to remove the drive axle flange bolts, will it come off or is it stuff with a c clip, I need a boot and half way through the job i realized i needed to take the whole cvaxle off to do this. I have the tools and think i can do this one .Yeah i am replacing the outter cv boot for the record. I know the garages will charge at least 200 bucs i want to save and learn this thing .

Help would be great.

 

I am confused, what vehicle is this for?

 

its a 5.3 1500 2004

 

just remove the bolts and it will come right out

 

Undo the halfshaft/propshaft bolts at the differential flange and then remove the nut at the spindle to slide the splined section of the shaft out of the hub and remove driver/passenger side shaft as one piece.

 

yeah i think im gon replace the whole cv shaft hell its only 40 more for a re -manufactured

 

im so happy the cv shaft went on and came opff w/o a hitch, i lerned some thing from this. I hd been having night mares about it being difficult , but it was really simple and would advise it for any one - just have a 10 inch extension on your gun.
