  • In this video I show you how I replaced the CV Axles on a 2007 GMC Sierra (Chevy Silverado). It's a fairly easy process, even with simple mechanics tools.

    I know it been a year since you made this, but I just found out today that if you remove the sway bar links on both sides you have enough room to remove the axle shafts without reomoving the struts. But great video ! Thanks.

    Great video! I did my yesterday. I just removed lower struts bolts and sway bar link pin. A little manipulation & boom badda bing got it done. Thanks for your help.

    Awesome! Good video, Summary at the end about the simplicity of the job helps others feel confident enough to tackle it! You are correct, the strut removal probably scares enough away from doing this.🤙

  • @TheDaninator

    Pretty simple fix. I’m just glad the axles weren’t stuck in the hubs! Ain’t nobody got time for that.

    I hate paying the "stealership" for work I can do myself, so I really appreciate your content. New sub to your channel, also. My next big project looks like it's going to be a front brake job on my '15 Silverado.

  • @joshuaputman8307

    I've got to do this on my truck this weekend. I wonder if it would be enough wiggle room just cranking the wheel over all the way instead of messing with the strut.
    Only one way to find out I guess.
    Thanks for the video. This doesn't look nearly as complicated as I imagined.

    • @Wombuffet
      @Wombuffet Год назад

      In the same boat as you, let me know if you didnt need to remove the strut!

    • @joshuaputman8307
      @joshuaputman8307 Год назад

      @@Wombuffet you definitely do. It "should" have enough wiggle room to drop the strut out, but on my truck, it had a small leveling spacer on top, so it was under tension. I had to pop out the outer tie rod end, and the upper ball joint to get it out.

    • @stevengaff7884
      @stevengaff7884 Год назад

      Yes just use a swivel it in your socket and you can wiggle it and get it out

    I see there is a little oil leak around were you bolted the cv axel, i have the same oil leak on my 08 sierra, did this stop the leak ? loved the way you explained in this video, doesn't seem to difficult, will be doing this myself after watching this, thanks 😉

    Dang that is a cheap cv axle. I just paid $140+ each for mine at Advance Auto Parts.
    Great tutorial video. Thank you

  • @willcurry9590
    @willcurry9590 2 года назад +4

    Can you just remove the sway bar end link and get enough clearance that way? If you remove the side bolted to the diff and lower it-I think you can get it out without messing up any alignment

    Very informative, how much did you save doing the job yourself would you say? I'm looking at doing the job myself to save some money I have a few tools to buy to get it completed but it looks fairly simple.

    Aren’t you suppose to replace both sides of that cv joint axel install. ??? Keep the balance or if one’s out then the other is bound to fail as well soon??? Idk I’m asking

    Do I have to take the strut out or is it basically just convenient to have it off to remove the cv axle ?

    • @TheDaninator
      @TheDaninator  2 года назад

      It's best to remove the strut, otherwise it's nearly impossible to remove the axel.
