Driveshaft Removal

Recommended Posts

SimonJ

About to change the engine and remember the last time I did this (many years ago) the offside shaft split at the bearing carrier and I didn't get it put back together again - ended up exchanging it for a new one. Any tips on how to avoid the same mistake this time round?

Basically make sure the 2 11mm nuts are undone, pushed through and turned 180degrees, then hit the shaft outwards from the behind the engine mount.

But don't what ever you do pull the shaft from between the hub and the mount as you'll mess the bearings/gaitor up :rolleyes:
