Hey all....I'm changing the clutch in my daughters 99 GT and the drivers side axle won't come out (I pry'ed and pry'ed). Is there a good removal method without damaging the CV boot?. Also, does the passenger side driveshaft have to come out or will it slip out with the transmission is pulled away

yeah that one is a PITA! what you have to do is have one person holding the axle as straight as possible and turn it while another person uses a prybar. find the sweet spot where you can get leverage between the trans and the CV casing. with the other person turning the axle you will find the sweet spot and it will poop out.

Dude, it took a luck strike with my foot while the pry bar was wedge in between the housing and the shaft. I see the issue now....there's a slip ring on the shaft to keep it in place.
?? what needs to come out on the passenger side? doesnt make sense to remove a bunch of stuff if the shafts slips out when the tranny is pulled away....or am I assuming something thanks |

on the passenger side you just have to unbolt the axle bearing. i wrote this for the 7th gen celica but its pretty close
