Nice job with the video! On mine, the drive shaft spline would NOT separate from the bearing wrecked a drive shaft puller and a heavy duty punch and used a couple of cans of PB Blaster but no luck. Ended up buying a new knuckle and replaced both the axle and knuckle/bearing (and ball joint). A couple of notes: when replacing the driver's side shaft: when it's pried out, some tranny fluid comes out; make sure the seal is OK before putting in the new axle. When installing the new drive side axle, point the open end of the snap ring (on end of axle) down before installing and put some tranny fluid on the drive shaft end. Push it in till it clicks and make sure it's in by pulling it with your hand (it shouldn't come out easily). Good Luck!

I have an 01 I’m replacing it on. Looks very similar, but there’s a small gap between the Axel and transmission. I replaced it with an aftermarket version and within two days I was getting the same noises that it was the Axel again. Is the Axel supposed to be completely pressed against the transmission or is that gap I had normal and I have some sort of other issues ripping my Axel apart?

There is a gap in there. I don't recall how much. Was your axle brand new or a reman? I put a reman in a family members car, and it made noise again shortly after.

if you were doing both the half shaft and the control arms, what'd be the best order of disassembly/reassembly?
@89G
Жыл бұрын
I actually replaced these control arms prior to starting the channel. I was not doing half shafts at the time, and I simply held them up and out of the way with a bungee cord. If I was doing both jobs at once, I'd pull the half shaft, remove/replace the LCA, then stab the half shaft. I really wish I had filmed that job... it's actually not too bad - provided you aren't dealing with a bunch of rust. If you have any more questions, let me know!!
