Anyone DIY the front drive shaft?
Looking for info on how to get it out. I need to know if I need to pull the subframe, transmission of front diff out of the car to be able to remove the front driveshaft. Mine has a cup that is coming apart and the ujoint basket has shifted to one side(basket is hitting 2 of the bolts on the diff side). I afraid it is going to throw itself out completely and beat the crap out of the bottom of the car.
Konigstiger, can I possibly get the workshop procedure for that from you?
