CV drive axles are replaced in this installment on the 96 Honda Civic. Worn and torn CV boot baffles have lead to the inevitable ‘clicking’ suspension symptom. So…rip out the old and in with the new before catastrophic failure occurs.
Just keep in mind that I don’t profess to be a professional mechanic. There are likely better ways to do this job with better tools. I’m just some guy in his garage working on my own worn out vehicles with the tools at my disposal. Hope it helps someone out in their own garage!

Bad ass video,you show great angles of how this procedure should be done,I’m definitely convinced I can do this now,no doubt,best video for sure.👍🏻
By far the best video yet, excellent job, you show how it's really done and you can see everything. Thanks
I concur, best one I've seen yet! You have a new fan❤
I am So glad you had problems taking it off, with my luck I would have to deal with it too LOL. Glad to see how you managed it though. Thank you.
That axl nut wouldn't have gave you such a hard time if you would have pointed that dimple out of the nut that they put in them.thats so it won't come loose when you're driving. Great video, thanks!
Well said
M.A.G.A
Whew! I'm glad he used a shop cloth to protect the finish on the hood from his breaker bar.
If you want to easy loose the stuck lower ball-joint, you need loose the nut and unscrew it till you hide the thread on the bolt.
After place jack under the nut(the ball-joint) and jack it up. After blow it like you did in the video. It will pop up easier and much faster
MICHAEL DIY ehhh just beat it up 👌🏻
My daughter's civic needs this done, thanks for the video very informative.
Glad it helped. Hope you are successful with the replacement on your daughter's civic!
good work but u need a heavy brass or metal version of that orange rubber malet u have. the striking force is much greater when hitting the axle shft.
Only thing I’d change is you probably should just take the fork bolt out after the lower joint and slide the axel out from the tranny and then beat the axel out the wheel assembly 🤷🏻♂️ but idk I haven’t tried it yet
the best axle replacement clear video and explanation i have seen so far thanks for the video
Thank you for the supportive comment. Very nice of you to say.

Nice video. Unless your inner joint is bigger than my 6 gen civic, you are able to bring it out without taking the lower bolt of the fork. The entire axle can come out through the fork hole. It is a tight fit, very tight fit but with a bit of fiddling and silicone lube/spray it will come out. Lube works wonders in many situations ;-)
Coming up on Monday I have to change the outer CV joint on mother in laws '88 Civic ut as it is only the outer cv I can knock it off without removing the shaft completely which will mean less work as I don't need to release the strut fork..
I thought your video was very helpful to me. Thanks for making it and showing the potential obstacles that typically pop up and consume the overall repair. I also like to work on my car if I think I have the right tools for the job. I live in Southern CA so hopefully I won't have as much trouble with sticking parts.
Informative, but no matter how well I have a vehicle supported, I never place my legs or body parts directly under any crush points like that.
So I don’t have to touch anything on the brakes if the axle doesn’t give me such a hard time breaking loose???
Just a little advice, get a bigger hammer, and use that breaker bar you were using as a pry bar with that pipe extension instead. That is a good way to break ratchets, I've done it before haha. GL and happy wrenching.
+kevin limparis I'll take that advice. I can see how the ratchet would potentially be damaged how it was used there. Thanks for your input Kevin.
kevin limparis or put a brick on your brake pedal or have someone push the brakes for you if it's in the front. of you're doing work on the rear wheels, just use your e brake
!!!!!!!!! 🚙🚙🚙🚙The lower control arm bolt needs a preload...jack up the axle, then tighten the bolt. !!!!!! 🚙🚙🚙🚙🚙The tie rod does NOT need to be removed. !!!!!!!🚗🚗🚗
Nice , i got the same year hatchback and I’m going to do this myself today. I’ll let yinz know how it goea
Cool Video I got the same car 94 !
Thanks man.
thank you this video helped me a lot!
id also stick a rag under the axle shaft and use the red tube on the can of spray to avoid oiling my brake rotors and pads...
Quite right. Completely agree. In fact it is a good idea to keep the penetrating oils off of the rubber surfaces as well; which, i didn't do too well even though most of those bushings and rubber seals need to be replaced anyway. Just good practice. Thanks for your comment.
Tom if you get a little oil on the brakes not a big deal, they'll just get hot and burn it off. won't cause any fires by any means, more just steam it off. you might smell it a little but that's the worst of it. in fact it's good to have a little oil on your rubber seals, just not gas or brake clean to dry them out and make them crack
I don't think you are doing this in the right way man
You're not wrong, however, since it worked out well for me and the car now has perfectly working transaxles I consider it done my way and a win in my book. Thanks for the comment.
Original video, good.
well done exelent vid. overcome all challenges
Thanks. Exactly.
cool bro thanks this helps a lot
Awesome!
I need the 2 seals, bought 2 at Autozone but does don't fit tightly like the one that i had before.
And inner tie Rod boot is smaller then what i had i can get it over the bridge.
Where can i buy this parts for cheaper, dealer asking almost $40 for seals.
Get yourself an impact wrench. They make life much easier. Harbor Freight sells an electric one for under $50 if you don't have an air compressor.
Video molto utile
Would you say this is an easy DIY?
Maybe somebody should have greased the splines the last 2 times those were replaced??
Great video!!!!
Thank you.
Did you drain the whole trans oil before doing the job?
Alvaresmaico20 u don’t need to
hey man any clue if this should be similar to a 94 integra? my axle snapped (no more burnouts for me) and i've been doing a lot of research and what not. Seems like a very similar design so i'll probably use this to help me on monday when i start working on it
Yes. Should be similar. Good luck with repair.
Ben Werli all makes and models are roughly the same idea. watch where the axle splines into the transmission. sometimes it's bolted in so check for the before you try to tear it out. it's broken anyway but not a good habit to get in
i actually replaced it a few weeks ago haha. had a buddy come and help and it was done within a couple hours. it was a lot easier than i expected because i figured the axle nut or the axle itself would be a bitch to get out but luckily she just slid right on out!
should have removed the ball joint from knuckle first
I cannot get that cv axle back in for the life of me its driving me fucking crazy
I’m going to play this music while I do mine! Do you still own the Civic?
I do actually. It has become a bigger project. In fact, it's in the middle of a K20 swap. That is a new video series that I am hoping to have up soon. Thanks for the comment
does your car have ABS? I am seeing where they are sold for ABS and non ABS versions
This is a Civic DX and does not have ABS. Thanks for watching.
matthew jumpp the process remains the same Abs (assisted braking system) or not, they're just a different axle as far as the parts shop is concerned
I really enjoy this video as much as I cringe at some of the uses of the tools you use. It really shows the reality of the job and how the little things can often be the time killer. They still get the idea of what they have to do but there's no false hope for the learners that it will be easy their first time around. very truthful video and fun to watch
You got any videos on removing transmission for a 2000 civic manual
mechanic is not for you
I'm not a mechanic. I just like working on my cars myself. Thanks for the comment.
17:42 very dangerous leg under the car
He's got it on multiple jacks and stands. People have to get under their cars to work on them.
@@Wabajak13 sir 4 me its very risky
