replacing CV joint in tailshaft

[DANNY8]

Well the tailshaft under me wagz is clunking pretty bad, it's all coming from the CV. So have bought a new CV and centre bearing (and will get new uni's as well)....but the only thing I'm not sure about is removing the CV. Does it have to be pressed off or do they come off easilly?

Come off easy. When you undo the allen bolts. Also, mark the shaft too and get it rebalanced.

Once you undo the allen keys you will see a circlip holding it on the shaft, been a while since it did it, pretty sure you then tap the boot off the back of the outer section and its slides off the shaft as a whole unit. They are a real prick to get back together right if the balls fall out on you, mine did it sucked. Then behind the cv joint is another circlip, take that off then the boot clamp and slide the boot off, youll figure it out its not difficult to work out.
