undo free wheel hub remove sir clip
undo disc brake caliper and sit on spring ( no need to bleed brakes later as not desturbed)
undo tie rod to steering
undo 10mm bolts back of ball then top king pin bolts then remove now remove complete swivel hub
then pull axel and cv do what you need to and reverse just fidly to put back in as the bottom bearing if not carful will fall out in dirt takes about 20min once you have done it a few times cheers
PS how you going to do that as they are already gone i sold them out of my shed last week

what he means is whats the best way to remove a front drive shaft from the cv cause i cant separate them
reason i know this is cause i asked him how to separate them

also my freewheel hub dosnt have circlips on them should i buy some or are they unnessasary ??

also ive been reading about a martack http://www.4crawler.com/4x4/CheapTricks ... ml#Martack

is this a good idea or only something americans would do ??

This is a pattented design so keep it secret.
GO to steel supplies and buy a piece of 36-38mm ID medium wall
black mild steel( for budget or galvinised) must be at least 900mm.
Then find a good block of timber or some concrete if you don't mind dents.
Place inner axle in pipe hold pipe and CV joint firmly onto the top of pipe bang repeatedly onto block of timber when axle falls out remove from tube. PS keep toes out of the way COST should be less then $10 try to get offcuts

sweeeet that worked great many thanks
front end is nealy back together but ive realised that ive missed all the shops so ill have to wait till tomorrow to get oil and more grease

how much grease should i pump into the knuckle housing ??

Easiest way i have found to remove a stock CV from the axle is to find a huge rock that has an undercut ledge that will fit my 38TSLs under and put the front locker in select 1st gear run the engine to about 6grand and side step the clutch. Works first time every time for me

Is that all it takes. So the high speed rollover that I did on the weekend to remove the axle wasn't necessary

Side stepping the clutch in a AUTO is a bit hard to do isn't it!

Just stirring, i know where you coming from!

get some one else to do it
