This DIY covers the replacement of the drive axle in a 02-09 Saab 9-5. This particular video shows the job on the passenger side. If you are doing it on the driver side, some transmission fluid will be lost, so be sure to get a quart before doing the job. Luckily this axle was not seized, so everything came loose with a few sharp blows. If yours doesn’t move upon a solid hit, use the nut trick to avoid mushrooming the end of the axle.

what wheels are those?
Great videos! I just purchased a 2000 SAAB 9-3 convertible turbo manual trans.. What would be the best combination to lower and fill my wheel wells? I have seen 18 inch wheels but no lowering videos…Hopefully you know best!
Thanks again for the video. I changed both left and right driveshafts in the past two weeks. This helped me do it right.
Great video. Thanks. I always wondered what the passenger side axle looks like in the intermediate shaft.
Is it possible to convert my 2005 9 3 to an awd? If so, can you create a video?
I didn't see any real reason to remove the caliber , looks like there was plenty of room to remove the lower ball joint
and as every DIYer needs…a 5lb sledge at all times.
This is a great video — very well done and gives an honest feel for what it's like to do at home. Also, really makes the case for getting an electric impact!
