Garvin Posted October 31, 2010 Share Posted October 31, 2010 The u-joints aren't that hard to replace. The hardest part in the whole disassembly is removing the hub. Including the lug nuts, there are about 11 bolts (5 lug nuts, 2 caliper bolts, 1 axle nut, 3 hub assembly bolts). Replacing the u-joint in the axle, itself, is easy also. You can either use the two sockets and hammer trick or can get the actual tool. I personally use the two sockets and hammer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirteatr717 Posted November 1, 2010 Share Posted November 1, 2010 Just lift up the front end with a jack and wiggle the u-joint to see if they clank, easy way to tell :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
