To remove a front-wheel-drive universal joint, first, ensure the vehicle is securely lifted and supported. Next, remove the wheel and brake components to access the drive shaft. Use a suitable tool to remove the retaining clips or bolts securing the universal joint, then gently tap it out of the yoke using a hammer and a drift tool. Finally, inspect the joint and surrounding components for wear before installation of the new part.

What Type of universal joint on a front wheel drive?
Front-wheel drive vehicles typically use a type of universal joint called a "constant velocity joint" (CV joint). CV joints allow for smooth power transfer to the wheels while accommodating the up-and-down movement of the suspension and the steering angle. There are two main types of CV joints used: the "ball-type" joint, often found on the outer end of the axle, and the "tripod-type" joint, commonly used on the inner end. These joints are designed to maintain consistent rotational speed and reduce vibration, making them essential for front-wheel drive systems.
