K Dub says:

Why remove abs and others parts if you just replacing cv axle

Gerard Arthus says:

try changing the seal also. waste to do all that work and not change seal.

Toby Dog says:

There are no videos for changing the drivers side rear CV joint on an 07-10 Ford Edge. No instructions anywhere. If someone could help, please reply. Thank you!

Frank Mc says:

I don't agree that using a hammer will damage the CV axle. I do understand where you are coming from but the force you are applying is against the rust between the splines and the hub. However, if that rust weld is broken and then you continue to pound then yes, it will damage the CV because the force will then be directly applied the joint. Pound the CV is the only way to break that seal and everyone would be replacing there CV when replacing a wheel bearing.

Good info awesome video

SwitchDoctor says:

I was going to do this myself, but I got stuck taking the parking brake cable loose at the spring, so I guess I have to put it back together to take it to the dealer

Chad Anderson says:

Doesn’t appear to be much space between the frame and differential. How would you get the drain plug out of the differential on that particular design?

Joshua Bman says:

Why didnt you just put the axel nut on backwards and hit the axel that way? Basically destroyed the axel for no reason other than a other charge on the bill

Kelly Hamilton says:

Help… I have a chevy equinox awd and I'm curious but on the back end where you used a pry bar to tap it free, why would mine have a space of at least 4 inches away from i will assume thats the transfer case ( I maybe wrong on part name) and I had it replaced not even a year ago? Is my axle still good, or would you assume that I would have to replace it again?

StayClassy says:

Is this procedure the same for a 2003 Lincoln Navigator?

Matt Thomas says:

Great video, I was able to get the cv out and in without have it to remove those back side hub bolts I can see how it helps having the hub out of the way but not necessary

Thomas Lamb says:

Thanks that was helpful

Old Яomans says:

Just got one of these Fords (looks exactly like the one in this video). I noticed the rear bushings were torn up on both the upper and lower knuckle when I replaced the sway bar links . This video will help get me there for sure so thank you for that. I'm surprised the knuckle in this video was replaced without changing the bushings . I know for sure that If I hit that axle with a sledgehammer, I would probably end up busting up the threads on the wheel studs, as-seen-on-tv style.

WorldClimb says:

On my 2005 Explorer I'm getting vibration from 58mph up. The is some play on the inbound end of the CV drive shaft (rear driver side). Would this be the likely cause of my problem?

Ed G says:

great video! Where do I find a screw jack like the one you have?
