I need some advice on removing the front CV shafts so I can finally pull my engine and transmission.
I have the drivers side and passenger side outer side of the CV shafts removed from the hub. The driver side looks like it goes through a carrier bearing of some sorts, and I was just wondering if there were any ideas on how to get them to come out. I have seen where a guy just tugs on the shaft and it will come loose but that doesn't seem to be working for me and just stretches the inner boot. Do I have to remove the clamps around the boot first? Any advice is appreciated and if you have a hard time figuring out what I'm talking about I will post a picture in a little bit.
