How do your take out the drive shaft in a 1989 Ford Taurus so you can change the transmission?In: Ford Taurus |
[Edit] |
Before you jack up the car, loosen the hub nut on the axle shaft. You'll need a long 1/2 breaker bar to move that nut. It's torqued to 180 ft/lbs. You'll also have to remove the tie rod end and possibly the lower ball joint nut. Once those are removed, you can use a crowbar to separate the hub from the ball joint and move the hub so you can pull the outer CV joint out of it. Afte that's done, use a crowbar at the inner CV joint and pry it out using a quick snapping motion. That will dislodge the C clip that's holding it in the transmission.
