Very helpful video.
I've just had to change a rear wheel bearing on my LS430 which involves removing the hub completely.
Manage to get all the ball joints apart by backing off the nuts a little bit and using a 19 mm impact socket and big hammer to crack them.
Before I could get to the top ball joint I had to remove the drive shaft from the hub, then you can get to the nut with an impact socket and an extension bar. Only had to hit it 6 times.
U bought a used cv axle because I can’t find new one unless dealership want 1000$
I didn’t buy anything. This is a customers car.
Hi, I have got a 2004 LS430 . My car makes these clinking sounds mostly when I move the steering wheel. It’s a loud sound. Also my cars got a vibration whenever I drive more than 110. I have done the alignment and wheel balancing also got a new set of tires. It reduced the vibration majorly but the vibration is still there. Can you please advise to what it could possibly be ?
Clicking sound is inside the car? Like the steering column area?
Assuming you’re in the states, I’d advise you drive slower than 110. It’s really unnecessary.
Fa sure cv axle if when u turning it clicks harder and louder but if your driving straight nd it’s not loud but u hear it most likely axle
@@HelpingHandAutoRepair no we have v8 drive fast or get v6 😂😂
Look at your front bottom swivels and track rod ends.
I had the same problem on my LS430 and that fixed it.
Do you have any videos for working on a 2007 Pontiac g6 2 door oil pan?
Unfortunately I do not. That job is indeed VERY difficult and time consuming. It requires a lot of stuff to be removed including but not limited to the front catalytic converter, the rear exhaust needs to be separated at the flex coupler, you may or may not have to remove the ac compressor. The engine needs to be lifted up in order to gain better access to the bottom of the oil pan as well.
That being said, it’s not impossible to do at home, it just would require tons of patience and some type of engine holder to lift it up and hold it up for awhile.
How did you tighten the nuts on the rear lower arms (caster/camber/toe) without the ball joint spinning?
Extreme amounts of patience lol. I actually used a pry Bar under the nut to sort of “pull” the ball joint into the arm and used my impact to tighten it. I got lucky and it worked.
I had the same problem. What I did was to lubricated the thread and pushed the taper in the socket as far as I could. Then I used an impact driver to spin the nut on, the momentum of the impact driver pulled the joint together.
The impact driver I have has a torque of 800 Nm for removing nuts, but for tightening nuts the torque is only 150 Nm. The lower torque for tightening nuts means you don't damage them.
Why did u replace cv axle
