Subject:c.v. joint removal Question
From:Jim Morgan
Date:Mon, 12 Nov 2007 17:41:40 EST

Greetings All,
I have a question about c.v. joint/ shaft removal and the archive did no
touch upon this.

I have a 80 ail cooled / manuel trans that the driver side  out board  boot
is torn. I noticed this when I removed the engine for a rebuild. Can I just
unbolt the inner and outer jounts and remove the shaft / assembly with out
having to remove the the 46mm axle nut and axel shaft? I am looking at my bently
and don't see why not.
reference 42.2 to 42.7 . I would like to deal with this while the engine is
being repaired.

For thoes who whant to know, Yes the heater flap cables broke  trying  to
remove the barrel nuts.
(next on the list)
