1G Front Driverside CV Axle

[jazzyjay]

I just bought Part # 7927 for Auto Zone It is the front left axle(drivers side) for the 90 GSX. The problem is that axle is only half. I did not know it was two separate parts. The inner has the carrier bearing and the axle that goes in the tranny. I have the outer.How do I separate the axles Or I checke the Vfaq but nothing there. Did not want to just go and start hitting with a hammer

how did you do it?

 

[jazzyjay]

I put the Carrier bear backet in the vice and taped the axle out

Were you not able to separated the axle from the carrier bearing with the whole assembly in the car? Did you have to drain the transmission to get the whole assembly off?

I did not know how to do it in the beginning, and I am only running my car in FWD without the transfer case. So the bolts on the block where easy to get to. The next time I know how to save time

When i replaced my axle I took the whole assembly out. I think you would have a very hard time leaving half the axle in the car. Make sure you drain the tranny first otherwise fluid will spill out the shaft hole.
