If I go ahead and remove my CV Joint assembly, will I require a wheel
alignment?

Kyros Nox says:

@Romulan112 I have a CV joint puller/removal tool to pull the CV joint out
without removing the shaft from the vehicle.

dolphinsfan1966 says:

In this clip you have just risked making your cv joint, 2 cv joints

ytaddiction says:

my car makes a clicking noise every time i accelerate while turning, is it
in fact the drive shaft?

piraat6666 says:

you shouldnt pull that like that idiot.

was says:

yeah it’s the bearings inside, they grip on ridges inside a drum, without
grease the drum dries out inside and those ridges get worn of by friction,
resulting in the bearings (ball bearings) slipping over the top- when you
turn, the angle of the bearings changes slightly, so allows them to skip
over- they can also jam up totally, in which case you could have a broken
axle and god knows what other damage 😛 for a $5 piece of rubber thats
totally unneccessary-

Kchur says:

He’s lucky he didn’t pull that inner joint apart yanking on it like that.

kylecorreia says:

@berett315 the secret is to figure it out yourself faggot

PUREAAMERICAN says:

Oh sure it always pulls out of the transmission side easily… riiiiggghht

Jared Himes says:

not bragging here but I’m 13 when the cv joint comes in two you the piece
thats still stuck in the car is stuck because of a ring that is spread out
in the transmission end of the joint. You can break it by yanking on the
end of the stuck piece. Like i just said wrap a cable to the back of the
stuck piece like a lasso and yank it a few times it should jerk out

denzo323el says:

@TheTator53 after you have it all done you ask god to forgive you

kylecorreia says:

its the cv joint

redsox2428 says:

“In this Clip”… You dont know wtf you doing.. Fail.

brassdg says:

HAHAHAH….the video pauses, he was just saying if you’re lucky, it’ll just
come out without the prybar but he uses one to break it .

berett315 says:

@kylecorreia then lets hear the secret then handsome!!

gina6968918 says:

dont post crappy videos if you dont even know how to remove a CV joint
right , or even remove it!

danz409 says:

how can you tell when this part is failing. my car sounds wonderful engine
wise. and shifts smoothly and has no problems with the transmission but.
when i hit higher speeds and only when i throttle it.. it feels like I’m
riding on a railroad track

zwloki0 says:

videos of this guy are useless!

itstrever32 says:

thanks everything i needed to know

ssonsk says:

you guys are ass holes for not making this in bigger segments -_-

was says:

yeah the way he shows is wrong, you need to go under the car, right up to
the transmission and pry it away from the engine- use a screw driver or
something and try not to damage the surface- also use jack stands under a
structural part of the car, i’ve seen cars get bumped while on jacks, and
the jack fail and collapse- it’s usually sucked on to the transmission-

TXmatrix2nr says:

yeah the drive shaft puller tool is pretty much a dent puller with a claw
lol

Jackson Hagin says:

I took out my CV joint today, it took 15 minutes, using a hammer, a
flathead screw driver, and a rag. Depending on how worn and how old your CV
joint is, it may be able to be pulled out, or “pried” out. Haha. ’91 Civic
Hatch, with the same one for 19 years? Definitely has to be pried.

swiftyupser says:

Thanks, Your videos have given me lots of help

civicsi411 says:

Wow, he’s got strong arm. Wish mine was that strong so I could “yank” it
out of the intermediate shaft.

kylecorreia says:

thanks man ya i finally figured it out lol i was really stuck there for a
awhile lol thanks tho

kennithhillis says:

Please do not listen to anything this guy says. I haven’t watched many of
his videos, but so for they are not the “proper” way. Good luck removing
and axle like this.

TheTator53 says:

Not so easy…..if ya give it a yank ya got 2 peices then ya need a crow
bar REDNECK STYLE WITH CHEATER BARS AND LOTS OF LOSING YOUR RELIGION. YOU
WILL CURSE GOD AND ASK GOD FOR HELP. IT TAKES TWO HILLTICKS FOR THIS JOB.

Alex Barron says:

*best way*

no1fanofwwe says:

does the cv joint which connects to the transmission end just pull straight
out?

pcmentor29 says:

On my 85 Sentra you could not pry it. You needed a dent puller(weight on
shaft) with vice grips attached to get the inner part out.

cduarte7218 says:

IN THIS CLIP!!!!!! LMFAO

southyboy1980 says:

what a waste of time removing the bottom ball joint. So much quicker to
take the two bolts off the top of the hub the connects the supension strut.
