I agree! At least now I know that you were serious and just didn't specify which car. Thought you were trolling with that first post of a front CV joint in a RWD car.

Hardest parts were breaking the axle free from the diff (no, you do not have to drain it). And, for me, getting the axle seated back in the diff. I later learned this is quite easy with a 4lb hammer (from Scotty Kilmer). You can see the whole process below.

A jack, wheel chocks and jack stands or acess to a lift. Gotta get the wheel off the ground safely. A pin/punch to de-crimp the OEM axle nut (or a smaller flathead screwdriver if you don't mind pounding on your tools). A big socket for the nut itself (don't recall the size, but could look it up), A breaker/cheater bar to get enough leverage to break the nut free. A medium length pry bar, to remove the axle from the diff. A torque wrench to properly re-torque your bolts A metric wrench and socket set (I think 10, 12, and 14 mms are needed) A new axle nut or you could re-use the one you just took off. I replaced mine as it cost like 8 bucks. PN# SU003-02864 A Big Heavy Hammer to tap the axle back into the diff. Axle grease Time, and shower afterwards cause you'll probably get dirty. Quote:

Ya, must be a Prairie price. Be an easy $500-$600 bill around here.
