_Meth 0 Posted May 6, 2010 Trying to replace the outer cv joint on my corrado (1.8 16v) and I dont know how to get the driveshaft out of the car, or how to get the old cv joint off! Any advice? Please! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
davidwort 0 Posted May 6, 2010 hold the joint straight and it taps off the end of the shaft with a whack from behind (copper mallet probably best) they're only secured on with a sprung clip set in a groove in the shaft. of course you need to remove the bottom hub pinch bolt and track rod from the hub to move the hub out of the way to extract the outer shaft.
