- Yes i did this in 10 minutes. without any editing the raw video was actually less than 10 minutes excluding having the bolt loosened earlier with an impact elsewhere.
In this video I change my passenger side axel on my 94 Acura Integra RS, B18b1 ls transmission, Process is the same for most fwd Hondas.
He didn't show where he fought the axle for a day
Bro I'm doing this now first time. On day 3 of trying to get passenger nut off. Driver side came off just fine
Not gonna lie. I enjoy how you had every socket size and good angles of the job. I was drunk and forget to lock in my axles. I now I have to replace them because they are striped. This video shows a good method of locking in the axle. That's a step most people don't show. Another benefit is you don't ramble on about your life like most people do. You go straight into the job no bs included.
it took me 3 hrs, but I wasnt rushing and I had to keep finding my beer
Lol
lmfao. Story of every dudes life.
Where did you get the axle
Only the real OGs wear sandals and fix their car 👑
😂😂👍seriously. Respect.
Thought it was only me lol
@@zomorrison963 show me how to change a 2005 freestar van CV joint please
Pakistan entered the chat
Wear sandals all day fixing cars
Thanks for this tutorial, I was a bit intimidated by this job but now I feel like I can do it!
Mind Palace Filmmaking yeah no problem! You can do it for sure. Goodluck!
Same. The flip flops and socks gave me a whole new feeling of confidence.
suppose to torque the lower ball joint to 35 lbs and the fork to 45 lbs on the lower ball joint u torque it to 35 lbs then tighten it till u can put the carter key in it
Edited, he's a rookie cookie. Took him long as shit to do one axle. And there was no need to drain the transmission.
ha-ha-ha-ha-ha..that's funny
Oh yeah you do have to drain transmission fluid and replace, that’s why many folks will do both at once! 😆
Claw hammer really pro shit their did one today and used my 3lb hammer and did not drain ? Didn't loose any fluid but after seeing this I know I messed up that claw hammer was in my carpentry belt sure would have made the job done right and would have cut time in half for sure
yeah I wasnt sure why he did that. I know that it connects into the trans but didnt think the fluid would just come out.
🤔🤔😂😂
You're awesome man! It's good to see brotherhood mechanic that look like a regular citizen can do. Good, Good vibe.
Thank you that means a lot!
Overall, some good camera angles considering this is a somewhat confined space to work, let alone film, in.
Y'all gotta Wear sandals if you want to do it in ten minutes.
I'll give you credit at least you did it 👍
Took me only 40 mins to do both cv axles on my car its simple with the right tools.
your video helped me with my 96 civ coupe, both of my inners were destroyed. to the point that on each side, 1 of the inside joints just fell out of the cut up boot by themselves.
Bro next time use the jack stand at where you jacked up the car. Where you had it is not stable. You can jack the car up in the front , at the tow hook.
No talking , just working . . . done. Subscribed!
Hey, Uploader, just wanted to say thanks for taking time to show this. I didn't learn anything, really, but I've been working on my own car for 3.5 years now.
I learn best from hands-on work, then videos, then reading. Haven't ever worked on control arms, suspension and stuff like that, other than moving the parts around to slide my 2004 Optima transmisson out for replacement.
My point is, it's great that you fix your own ride (pride in your ride) and thanks for the video, even if I didn't learn much.
Safety first. Jack stands, eye protection. Preload suspension THEN torque to spec. Antiseized compound is great to have.
I'm just amazed at how easy the cotter pin came out, took me a few days 😭
When you work on your car so much everything is super easy 10 min is about rite
This video is good b/c it's quite obvious what the basics are for replacing the axle. However it also shows quite obviously what one should not do. No jackstands, sandles and sox, not careful about ball joint. So it helps to show to be careful and take your time.
Todd K he’s using jack stands tho😂
6:00 jackstand… whuuuuu you bitching about?
In order for the procces to go right you need to wear socks and sandalds don't ask me why that's just how it is ..on a real note good content nbs
Beyond helpful for my Honda 👍 thanks dude
ATG & many pros suggest to drain the Transmission Fluid, replace the CV Axle's Seal, CV Axle and Lower Ball Joint, Cotter Pins, fill the Transmission Fluid.
Then take it for a 4 Wheel Alignments (2w is okay). If those bolts have off-center ones.
Check & pray that the Lower Control Arm & Arm Link are good.
But if they have over 271,000km, then most likely that are defective.
A lift and power/air tools do make all the difference. Me not having either, it was still a very easy job
Had to watch again. Lmfbo... The carpentry hammer tho. Lol
That's his BFH!
If you don't have ball joint separator or a heavy hammer you can turn the castle nut upside down and use your hammer to free the ball joint
Abou to do this job and this video gave me a lot more confidence! Thank you for making it!
Took me three hours to put in a cv axle, ball joints, control arm bushings, and tierod ends and all new breaks in the front.
In 10 mins? Just loosening the nuts and bolts will already take time..😂
@EclipseStrife and the "ratchet trick" to separate the ball joint. faster than a separator tool, in this case that is. best time for me was under 30 mins, including taking the wheel off, etc.
10 min? Surreee buddy. You dont need to drain fluid either or rip the boot off... Also use a ratcheting strap to hold the hub/knuckle up while u swap them out. Works like a charm
Thanks dude my axle popped out after an engine swap so I watched this to make sure I have put it back properly lol
Nice video plan n simple no bS learn a lot need to do both mys .. car looks good can’t wait to be on that level like u .. mys rusted bucket .
Doing this weekend on a 5th Gen....hope it goes as quick as it looks here, my buddy said “it will take 20 min” and I was surprised! Thanks for vid! 🇨🇦👍🏻
Although I do wonder why folks don’t change the axle seal? You could do all this and then have your MTF leak all over the ground? Hmmmm
That is absolutely correct... I always try and sell the customer on new seals...
Y’all are haters it’s obvious a time lapse thanks for the vid 💯🤟🏾
If you just compress the spring by lifting the steering knuckle with jack then put socket in between LCA and steering knuckle, you can release the jack and the coil spring will pop the ball joint for you.
I hope you dented the axle nut after installing too! (You're not supposed to torque those bolts until you drop the car down). Hope this helps. Could be very dangerous
Good job,in 10 minutes finished. Sin necesidad de hacerla tanto de emoción como otros con su bla bla bla. Congratutations boy!!!
My dude wrenching on his wip in slides and socks 😂🤣
Edit: and using a torque wrench to loosen bolts. Jesus.
Lmao
A true legend.
No where in the video did I use a torque wrench to loosen bolts I have a extended ratchet that looks similar to the torque wrench. Please watch the video again if you are unsure ;)
'How to Change a CV-Axel in a video that's been edited down to 10 minutes' would be more accurate. Always use jack stands and proper footware.
Only takes 10 minutes if you have all the tools ect on hand
If you don't have jackstands throw the tire under the car..
@EclipseStrife
yup
Always jackstands. Always. But unless hes got on steel toe boots and that car comes down theres nothing saving his toes from being completely crushed, and even with the steel toe, theyll just be severed with a chance of reattachment.
Thank you for making the video!!! Some funny comments below but just laugh WITH us! no one is perfect! HAHA. Again TY for the video. It's harder to do it while capturing it on video at the same time!
Aye dat was quick asf no cap
Like your oil drain tray, good idea.
thanks!
And white is a good color because you can better see how clean or dirty the gearbox oil is.
I changed both out on my daughter's civic, took a little longer than 10 minutes but was overall fairly simple.
Where did you get the cv axles and were the reman? Aftermarket?
Love the socks with sandals
its a jdm thing
@@carlosmiranda628 jdm thing haha 😂👌
I think I missed something here. Isn't the axle supposed to lock into the transmission with the circular lock ring on the end of the axle spline? It looked like he pulled the axle out of the trans to put into the bearing hub. I thought it was the opposite, lock the axle into the trans and then bring the hub into the other side of the axle!
that's cuz v tech already broke the axle yo!!!!
My Dogg good shit 💯
I can change an axle in 30 seconds.
just need this guy to film my video🤣🤣🤣
Now you can do a video on how to mow your front lawn in your sox and flip flops.
Bro, that was pretty cool.
I wouldn't let this guy work on my car.
I would have changed the cv axle seals also. That would've added maybe another 15 minutes and around $30-35. Hope yours don't leak.
Thanks brother this video helped me out a bunch!!!
Long long did that CV Axle last you, and what brand is it and where did you get it? Thinking of going OEM (which is best of course) or cheaper alternatives?
Didn't see him stake the axle nut after tightening it at the end. Hope he refilled the trans oil before test drive
If you work on anything in slides and socks You just ain't ready
beast mode lol Do you have to drain transmission fluid?
Same, why drain please?
Nice job now it’s my turn 😩🔧🛠🔩 wish me luck lol
goodluck you got this!
Nice asss whipp👌👏gotta love that front end hella jdm🔰🔰🔰🔰
It took me 10 min to do it and 30 min to find where are those god damn tools
Your suppose to use a dead blow hammer for tapping on the rotors and a small sledgehammer for the ball joints.
In the real world you use what you got ..M.A.G.A
Was that axle any good? did it last , did it vibrate?
nice job greasing the splines
you forgot to replace your transmission oil
Good point.
Atf is not oil . its basically grease
@@nen.user.3764 it isn't atf in that car:p
you broke the lugnuts loose with a ratchet???? and then used the impact to spin them off??
Thanks bro, needed this
Did the c.v axle fall off when you took it down the road?
Maybe next time, just take the shock out, and drop down the upper control arms.
Only 2 nuts to remove, and no need to bang up any ball joints or tie rods.
👍✌️
Great Video Dude, I think It would have been easier to take off the two bolts from the Spindle and then the Axle Bolt.
There is no way this was only 10 minutes !
I was skeptical as well but look at the shadows. They haven't moved that much.
Gonna need to bring in a private investigator for this
it is really that easy, I've done it in 7 minutes on a lift and power tools.
Hardest part of this hole job is that dam ball joint. Get a big hammer
He was on Asian standard time! You know, fast as f#ck! ROFLOL!
Nice vid. Do you apply grease to the inner/outer cv axle splines on both driver/passenger axles? Thanks
like your video. could you send me the description of the hand air gun for me
Thanks so much for the video!
When you pushed the new axle back in did you have to use force or did it go in easily ? I’m changing the axle on my 98 ex coupe and the axle won’t go in all the way
Yo I’m having a problem with my integra it’s started to make a clunking noise when I turn and let off the gas could it be the cv axles? Trans still smooth no wining noise on neutral not the smoothest on gears either
yea that's it. I have a 04 TL with the same issue and took a look and realized my boot on my cv axle is torn.
Saw you wearing sandals and said nope not today!
Is this a abs or non abs
Looks like Harbor Freight tools saved the day.
Love the claw hammer
Great work. I just know something will go wrong when I attempt this....
haha i was thinking the same 😂🤣😂🤣
I think the hardest part of doing this would be to not mess up the seal in the transmission that the axle slides into unless your putting new seals in anyway and then still, being careful not to nick or otherwise damage the seal trying to slide the new axle in!
flip flops and claw hammers interesting. Whats the H and H all about.
Good looking guy. Also wanting to know how long the axle lasted.
There's no way possible he did this in 10 minutes
The sun moves fast where you live. Like really fast.
I live on tatooine
Good job on that axle i had a question bout that red cover valve u have if u can reply i would aprecciate .
Aida Medina thanks and what’s your question?
gracias
guessing old axle just fell out of the hub assembly. No problem!
Where can I get 97 accord axle affordable????
How u didn’t even show the removal part??? It’s the point of the video isn’t it???
I don't think he snapped the cv joint back in place
Will this work on a 2006 Chevy Impala 3.9?
Awesome video. Thanks so much.
do you not have to tap the axle into the transmission until you hear a click?
Thanks for your insight
Ok how did u put the lower ball joint back in?
Don't have a cow but I did it the udder way. Disconneted the struts and removed the spindle nut it came right. That the outer end. The inner one is stuck, and so am I. I can't do the solutions I have seen here where I live, so I will have to pay.
Is this for an Acura TL too?
There’s an easier way, remove the rear lower control arm pivot bolt it threads in horizontally, leave the front one alone (or vice versa) , as long as you don’t remove the arm bolt that threads upward/vertically, this allows you to swing the entire control arm in an outward/forward, outward/rearward-arc, with the axle nut removed and shocked loose, the outer joint end can drop out, you want the inner to come off first, I keep the nut hand tight on the axle joint and use a pry bar to assure that the inner joint pulls loose, in quickly install a plastic cap that fits the inside the differential seal, (call a transmission shop they’ll have one you can use or know the size they’re nickel & dime minimizing spillage to a half pint -/+. I believe the outer joint clears the fork if you keep it straight, (no joint angle) it’s even faster and a great concept of engineering clue to the purpose of implementing individual parts in a modular component system, they go together easier than today’s LEGO blocks I’ll tell you that much! You need a Masters degree in alternative logistics to master LEGOs !! Lol
What was that lil Bobby pin looking thing and do you need it
I could do this in 3 minutes with all the chopping and editing you did.
why did u have to drain your transmission fluid changing the axles?
Fail! looks like the lower control arm gashed the ball joint boot, when you lowered it
Fail!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Your comment is a hypothetical
I took 10 mins by lifting the car and remove the tire lamp🔥🔥😅🔥🔥
Hope you added Tran fluid
