    From being an ASE Certified and experienced auto mechanic there is a couple tips id like to share with you.
    1. When reinstalling a CV shaft, a little bit of grease or diff oil, and making sure the retaining clip opening faces the BOTTOM helps tremendously, as itll make the clip "Hug" the shaft and less to hang up on when reinserting (When you shot this video you had the gap pointing UP, which made the clip hang, so the whole thing was catching on the inside of the diff and is what made your install kind of tricky) and I always make sure the spline shaft is engaged in the diff then pull it out right until it wants to fall out and slam it in, usually it pops in with one try.
    2 Pickle forks arent always needed for ball joints. like the upper A arm in the video, if you push down some force on the hub and then just strike the side of the A arm directly perpendicular to the A arm, right where the ball joint is located, the shock of a hammer will usually break it loose. NEVER hammer on the top of the ball joint, or on the length side of the A Arm/ tie rod end .etc, it will most likely ruin it. BUT Pickle forks are a necessity if you do this often.
    Little tricks mechanics learn, especially when paid by the job and not the hour!
    Good video, very informative and gave me an idea of what i will face when i replace mine!

    Very well done vid. Very informative. Wish someone would do a vid on rear "wet brake" replacement. No vids to be found on that DIY.....

    This video really helped!
    I didn't know that I can pull axle holding the other end. Now the axle is removed.

    Thanks for the video. Having an issue with my 650i where steering will randomly jerk and almost bind up. Really hoping it's an issue with front cv joing (one boot has a bit of grease on it and will occasionally pop when turning steering and/or wheel). First step I'm replacing both front axles and if that doesn't do it, I'm afraid it's likely going to be a diff rebuild (already changed brakes).
    Any similar experience to what I've referenced, Mark Jenkins?

    April 30,2023, 3pm. Is there an inner seal that should also be replaced after pulling the larger seal? I have a 2002 prairie 650

    How can I break the axle nut loose? I've tried two impacts, heat, and a cheater pipe. It won't budge! I'm stuck.
