This guy’s video, although doing an 03 Santa Fe, was a HUGE help!:

“Even a blind squirrel finds a nut now and then” and that’s my motto for these DIY videos. I am not a professional in most areas covered in these videos, just an average guy trying to save money by doing things on my own. Obviously I only post the videos if I was successful, and so I hope I can help you out. I made these videos mainly because I couldn’t find one for my specific project on YouTube.
Ask any questions you have in the comments, but just know I don’t really know anything & just figured it out along the way. If you know anything about the project in this video or have experience yourself, please by all means comment and tell me what I should have known or done differently!

Thank you for actually showing how to do something. This might be the most helpful and knowledgeable video on YouTube lol. I now know what I'm getting into when I try this myself.
What's my hat saying at 19:15?
Thank you so much for all the great advice. Took me about 4 hours from start to finish. I have 2008 Tucson and I think the opening between wheel well and CV joint shrunk by an 1/8 of an inch. what a beast to get in and out. But pointing the pulley over the axle was the right way. Thank you again saved big time time on this job.

Better take it to the service-they know best! ))))
Thank you, thank you and than you. I just spent about 45 minutes looking online all over the place and just found your video. I'm changing the CV axles on a 2005 Hyundai Santa Fe and everything was going fine except for getting the new one in place. The plastic splash guard was in the way. I couldn't figure out how to remove it and was considering cutting it. Then I found your video and went back put to the garage to see if the bolts were in the same place and they were. Just wanted to let you know that I really appreciate you taking the time to make the video. Thanks again.
