Hi I just decided to replace the half shafts from a 93 Toyota Camry. I struggled for a day with the driver side half shaft and finaly got the dumb thing off by buying a very ridgid prybar from sears, jamming it under shaft near the trans and bashing with a big sledge hammer. Pow! and it was free!

The passenger side is still a challenge. I removed the snap ring and lock polt but it won't move. I thinking of using a tourch to free the bearing, but will ask a friend first.

AnswerHi again,I just called a friend re: the passenger side half drive shaft. I got a brass punch and positioned it against the inner CV joint next to the bearing in the bracket. He said to use a ballpeen hammer to drive the bearing out of the bracket by using the punch against the inner joint. (don't hit the bearing)After some pounding with the ballpeen, I decided to bring out the "big gun." A few hits with the sledge hammer got the bearing free from the bracket.

I cleaned the bracket with a wire brush dremmel and the rest of the install was easy.

No, the CV joint is the "flex" part of the drive shafts. The differential is part of the transmission on a fwd car that allows the two axles to turn at different speeds when turning a corner.


How does the drivers side drive shaft come out of the transaxle on a 1990 Toyota Camry 3SFE with 5-speed manual transmission?

If the Camry is anything like the MR2, the procedure requires a brass chisel, if I remember correctly. I do remember that you DO NOT pull on the half shaft as this will cause the interior u-joint thing to separate and spill white lithium grease everywhere... I STRONGLY suggest acquiring a factory service manual or seeking the assistance of someone that has completed this task before attempting to remove the drive shaft. I learned the hard way on the MR2... .


How do you replace the CV joint of your Toyota camery?

Step by step process is as follows: 1) Loosen the CV joint nut prior to jack the car up if you can. 2)Jack up the car, put jack stands underneath when you reach your desired height, jack stands are the safest way to keep your car up. 3)Remove the wheel 4)Remove the Tie Rod from the strut assembly 5) Remove the lower control arm from the strut assembly 6)Remove that CV joint nut Now the strut assembly might get in the way from pulling the CV joint axle from the Transmission you can try to find something to hook it to while with a bungee cord or something. The CV joint should slide right out from the "middle of the rotor" 7a)If you have a CV puller that fits your CAMRY you are going to want to slide the puller around the axle as close to the Transmission pan as you can. 7b)If you do not have a puller you can try to pry it off with a pry bar this will take some perseverance. 8) Once you get the axle loosened from the transmission you are going to want to slip a drip pan underneath where the axle goes into the transmission, Transmission fluid will flow from the hole. 9) You can now pull the old CV Joint out of the transmission all the way. 10)Work the new CV joint axle into the transmission (BE CAREFUL NOT TO HURT THE BOOTS) 11)You may want to knock it in with a hammer gently until it is in all the way (I recommend a rubber mallet) 12)Work the CV joint back into the "middle of the rotor" 13)Hand tighten the CV joint nut onto the cv joint 14)Connect the lower control arm back to the strut assembly. 15)Reconnect the tie rod 16)Replace the tire 17)Use a torques wrench to tighten the cv joint nut to 180lbs 18) Take the car off the jackstands 19)Replace the transmission fluid lost with new transmission fluid 20)Drive Safely!


Your 1991 Toyota Camry cv joint is making a ticking noise when the gear is in drive only?

Check the "boot" for cracks and see if there is any loss of grease. The boot is the rubber housing around the CV Joint. If the boot is damaged, grease has escaped and the CV Joint is making noise, the CV joint must be replaced.


How do you replace the flex pipe on a 1995 Toyota Camry LE?

The 1994 -1996 Toyota Camry has a flexible joint inline with the Rear Catalytic Converter. (Yes two converters!) The Flex joint develops a leak and then the vehicle sounds like a tank driving down the road. The Flex joint is welded onto the pipe so it is not replaceable. Fortunately the cost for the entire pipe with the converter is very reasonably priced! Replacing the entire Converter pipe will have the vehicle back on the road in very little time.
