We installed a NEW Driver's Side Axle when that was not the problem...... Now we are having trouble removing the newly installed axel when only the Front Wheell bearing WAS the Real problem....How can we safley remove the NEW axle in order to return it in order to get the correct parts without messing the New Axle up? PLEASE HELP US


Thank you sooooo very much

The only way to remove the NEW CV shaft is just the way you removed the old one. A little hit at the end of the axle to remove is out of the wheel hub and a little pry at the transaxle. I don't really see how to remove it looking "new" after it is installed, after the seal has been attached to the transaxle, and the axle nut been torqued to the thread.

thanks for replying.......after thinking about it we decided not to try and remove the axel......it'll never hurt anything to leave something new in.....it was just that the new one just wouldn't budge
