Driveshaft removal

Post by HuntyJ »

Hey guys am I missing anything here,

Been following the guide on know your 2 and i just can't seem to get the driveshafts to budge when taking out my 3SGE :facepalm: . Not had to take them out of an mr2 before and just wondering if theres any bolts or clips holding it in or whether one side has to be done first?

Sorry for the stupid question

Not a stupid question at all... they can be pigs to budge but unless you have a special tool you just need a couple of Big flat-bladed screwdrivers. Put one into the small gap between the gearbox and the cv joint either side of the shaft and fhen jolt the shaft out. There are no bolts etc just a spring-ring to overcome and the shaft will just slide out
