    👍Thanks for this vid dude. Had a lot of people saying pull the tie rod, pull the whole knuckle, pull the strut and LCA, people saying how stuck the axle was going to be. I followed your video and was done in 45mins or so in my driveway. Although im working on a Mazda 5, its the same set up.

    2006 Mazda 3, 2.0 L engine.
    I'm in the middle of replacing the CV axle, seal, wheel bearing, and control arm ball joint. Got the axle from Autozone (Duralast Gold 10462N). Website said it was the correct part. It looked right, but wouldn't go all the way into the transmission.
    Turns out there are multiple versions of this axle around 2006-07. Measured the old vs new splines and they were different. The Autozone guy looked up and pulled out multiple axles that were supposed to fit and nothing matched the OEM. Then he looked up 2007 axles, and Duralast 10454N matched the original. My car must've been built during a transition. What a PITA!

      I hate when that happens. With how technologically advanced we are these days you would think that they would have that up-to-date in their parts system.

    The best cv axle video I’ve seen on any car but especially for a g2 Mazda 3

    I shoulda watched this first. Oh well. One note: torque specs on that axle nut is 173 - 202 ft/lbs. It kinda looked like you didn't put much on that one.

    Im sure its the same on my 2012 Mazda 3 skyactiv. You make it look real easy.

      It should definitely be similar. Best of luck with your repair.

    Do you happen to know CV axle seal number?

    Don't even know if my comment will help me, but I guess i'll explain my problem anyway. The ball joint won't go back into the knuckle, it'll line up horizontally, but not vertically. Tried loosening up the lower control arm, sway bar link, and strut to no avail. The CV Axle has to be pushed in all the way, I've at least tried again and again. Tried used the jack to push it in: doesn't work. Tried using a wedge like a pry bar to open up the knuckle: doesn't work. I really don't understand what to do now.

      That's a tough one. Without actually seeing it I don't know how much help I'll be. But I do know that there is a slight angle that the lower ball joint has to be put in at and that the CV axle can often be the issue if it won't line up correctly.

      @@13sGARAGE Thank you for responding, I figured it out. IT'S THE WRONG CV AXLE. It's longer than the old one. I was in denial until I took it out and put it next to the old one. My fault.

    Is this the same process for the passenger side?

      @@franciscoherrera9342 for the most part yes, the passenger side will have an extended shaft that will have a center bearing that is typically held in place with two to three bolts.

    Hi i was looking to buy a cv axle on rockauto but i dont find the seal and it doesnt say if it comes with it did yours come with the new axle ?

    • @13sGARAGE
      @13sGARAGE  7 месяцев назад +1

      No the axle seal has to be bought separate.

      You don't necessarily have to replace the seal. I just inspected mine, they still looked fine. Obviously be careful putting in the splines so you don't damage the seal.
