its so easy -- you tube has the basics -- if you can do a turnup you can change the cv- halfshaft
Begin by removing the tire and wheel from your 1987 Honda. Remove the brake assembly and the brake rotor. Remove the CV joint retaining bolts. Reverse the process to install your new CV joint.
Remove wheel and brake caliper, remove caliper frame and ABS cable.Separate tie rod end and ball joint from steering knuckle. Remove hub nut and pull knuckle away from outer cv joint. Insert a thin pry bar between cv inner and transaxle case and jerk it to loosen cv joint. Re-install in reverse order.
You normally have to remove the wheel fron the strut. My son say it is possible to remove the tie rods ends and so the brake drum will turn out far enought to remove and install a new cv joint axle. Go to your local library for a repair manual

To change the CV joint on a 2004 Chevy Aveo, first, safely lift and secure the vehicle. Remove the wheel and brake components, then disconnect the axle nut and any retaining clips. Slide the axle out of the hub and remove the old CV joint from the axle shaft. Install the new CV joint, reassemble by reversing the disassembly steps, and ensure all components are properly secured before lowering the vehicle.
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.

To replace your CV joint you will have to slacken your hub nut before jacking and removing the wheel. Remove hub nut, remove both bolts on the bottom of the shocky, remove bottom ball joint bolt. You should have enough play to remove your shaft from the hub. Remove CV boot, CV joint should just pull off shaft. I made the mistake of buying and fitting a full drive shaft unnecessarily.

To replace the CV joint on a Mitsubishi L200 4x4, start by safely lifting the vehicle and removing the front wheel. Then, detach the brake caliper and rotor, followed by the axle nut. Remove the CV axle by prying it out of the hub and disconnecting it from the transmission. Finally, install the new CV joint by reversing the disassembly steps, ensuring all components are securely fastened before lowering the vehicle.
Pry out the black housing of the CV joint with the shaft of a screw driver or long breaker bar. Lever it out against the transmission housing and a solid part of the black housing. It's a little tricky to get the right leverage and you may have to bang it, but its easy to do.
