1 - simplest and cheapest method- replace the axle 2- replace the CV joints and boots 3- lots of unnecessary work, very expensive - check the joints and replace as needed, replace boots
Yes, It is in the way.
The 2000 Ram had u joints, not cv joints at the front axle.
It is best to replace the whole axle, Its easy to do not to mention pretty inexpensive....
You would want to purchase complete axle haftshafts, not just the CV joints. It would be more time consuming and costly to just replace the CV joints. A complete rebuilt haftshaft should cost under $100 each plus labor to R&R.
It does have CV joints but, it is best to just swap out the complete axle assembly than to replace only the CV joint. You will spend much time and almost as much money trying to replace the CV joint than to just purchase a reconditioned axle assembly and swap it.
It doesn't have universal joints. The axle shafts have constant velocity (CV) joints.It doesn't have universal joints. The axle shafts have constant velocity (CV) joints.
most shops will want to replace entire axle shaft which is the way to go, depending on where you take it should cost 175-250 per axle,
No the axle shafts use CV joints.No the axle shafts use CV joints.
Remove the front tires, from your Pontiac Grand Prix. Remove the brakes and rotors. Unbolt the axle from the suspension. Remove the axle.
The most common way is to support the engine from above, drop the frame under the engine and trans-axle, remove the transmission and clutch. Replace flywheel and reassemble.
I've never worked on a KIA, but I wanted to give you just a bit of info. Its actually cheaper to buy the right or left axle, not to mention less work. Front wheel drive cars have 4 CV joints. 2 per axle. Just ask for a rebuilt Half-shaft. Good Luck do not get a rebuilt axle, you will regret it
