Excellent information !!!! I should have no problem completing this job. It's probably my 20th Axle replacement in my life time. But a fool thinks he knows it all, and I am not a fool. Thanks, for your great info!🤗😇
This video helped me to do my cv axel replacement. But there were a few tools that were unspecified for this repair. So i had to do a trial an error method to see which one fits the axle which exhausting. If you give the specific description of each of the tools for a lot of beginners to see. I'm positive that it will have a great affect.
Ex. You talked about the axle nut being removed with your impact drill, but you didn't specify which size impact socket would fit for this year and model neither. Or whether the impact drill needs a certain size adaptor.
Overall. Thank you for making this video! 🙏🏽💯 @ceas
Gives me me flash backs to last year when I installed some lowering springs and in the process ripped my outer cv axle boots. The tried to replace them myself and destroyed the axles in the process. A tow to the dealership 5 days and 1100 dollars later my car was fixed.
Ouch!
I’m in your shoes now except I haven’t installed the new axle yet. How did you destroy it?
Also, did U go with oem axles or not? If not how does it ride? Make any noise or can u not tell the difference
@@officialgizzy8155 If you follow the steps of this video, you will be safe to replace it yourself. I went with O Reilly's Import Direct axle PT#HO8680 in the video. There is no difference at all with noise or handling. A lot of OE parts were on backorder, including axles. Just take your time and be patient, and you will be okay.
Yeah me with coilovers that why I’m looking at this now😂
Thank you for the detail that was put in this video. I will do exactly this repair soon due to the clunking noise.
You're very welcome!
This guy makes this so easy 👏👏👏
I have a question, is a wheel alignment needed after axle replacement?
Beautiful explanation of everything
Hey brother my intermediate shaft bearing is leaking. I thought this piece came with the axle and was just gonna have the whole thing replaced. I didn’t see you take down with it or maybe I missed it
Those are some nice wheels!
What were the symptoms of the bad axel? My 17' Si is shaking every 2 seconds while driving. Shaking is noticable at 65+ mph.
My 2017 si had a loud noise. Lifted her up yesterday and the boot was ripped, thanks to part avatar my axle will be in hopefully by Wednesday
Great video, I just had to remove the driver side CV axle on my Son's 2016 Civic to replace a torn outer boot. I knew trans fluid would come out when I pulled the axle but I got quite a bit. By the time I got a catch can under it I got close to 400~500ml. Do I need to be concerned that I lost that much? Do I need to top it off with maybe half a quart or just leave it alone?
Same thing happened to me....some hater decided to ram me...unfortunately the guy that hit me was Hispanic and the cop who showed up lied on the report....imma fix it because I needy car but uhhhh it's getting cold outside
N yes I would top wit with a little fluid....you should be fine especially if u just got a flush not that long ago
Is there a brand of cv axles you recommend if you are planning on making more HP for a civic?
I noticed a little shaking when I accelerate and a tiny squeak on my passenger axle when coming to a stop
Where can I buy these axles I can’t find them anywhere for this model
Ik this is a older video but I've worked at 4 dealers. We've always impacted the locks on and off only thing ever happened was broke the teeth in the key! As long as u got torque sticks you won't have a problem!
Hi, thanks for the video! My CV axle seal is leaking on the passenger side the boot looks fine and so does the axle. Can I replace the seal in the middle of the axel without taking out the whole thing? Thanks in advance!
thank you😀 CEAS!! I'm gonna try this weekend!
Good deal! Let us know how it goes ;-)
Wow awesome video. Very informative. I’m attempting this myself. Everything went quickly and smooth. However I can’t seem to get the outer shaft back in and out through rotor. Super frustrating. Any tips?
Go easy, and keep trying. If you have the correct part, it'll seat!
Great content on how to replace the axle! Getting ready to replace mine…same side. So basically, to separate the axle from the intermediate shaft, you need to pry it apart? Will the intermediate shaft be pulled from the transmission? Also, not necessary to drain the transmission? Thanks for your help.
You are correct, and no need to drain.
I’m about to do the same job but I gotta replace the driver side axle do I need to drain the fluid for that side since it’s going into the transmission
So I got my axles replaced for both sides and I didn’t buy OEM. After a month or so my car started to shake between 40-50 mph (but after 50mph the shaking would go away) could the cv axle be the problem? I’ve checked everything and it seems fine I just don’t know what to do at this point.
I wonder if it would be something wrong with the tires maybe?
Hey @Nestor Muralles did you ever figure out what your problem was? If you did can you explain please?
@Javon Williams No I went to the tire shop and they checked everything and nothing.
Cant get the driver side off. Any tips or tricks?
Don’t understand why you said not to beat on axle head because you might mushroom it and can’t use the nut?, but aren’t you replacing it?
Thanks a lot for this video and making sure to show every important step! Is there any lubrication needed for any of these parts before installing the new axle or reinstalling the old parts?
Thanks for the kinds words, and no. You should be all set!
If anyone can help, would this be the same on the driver side? I have an 18 Si Coupe and it needs a driver side CV axle.
I've got a torn boot, but hoping to just replace the boot and not the whole axel. Can the boots be replaced without pulling the whole axel?
Yes, you can! Is it inner or outer?
With all the right tools typically how long does this job take
Typically an hour or so.
What the name of the drill used?
Hi Alanzo,
This was our SP 18V 1/2" Drive impact. We're actually waiting to get them back in stock now. You can check out everything SP Tools USA has to offer @ www.sptoolsusa.com.
Part # SP81133A
Same concept as a non SI right?
You happen to know the part number for the driver side axel??
What's the model and sub model?
Good video and explanation on how to this job. Not adding in the torque specs for the axle nut (181ft/lbs) and the lower ball joint (47ft/lbs) kinda make this incomplete and I’ve got to look at comments like this or other people’s videos.
Your numbers are not correct, but hey...it's free, you can always start your own RUclips Channel.
Hey all! Just did this job on my 2016 civic EX and the axle nut is 32mm instead of 36 on this Si.
Thanks for the view and update!
How may mile this car ?
Is the driver side the same process or different?
About the same!
Bro never use a hammer 🔨 to seat your axels, i use pure muscle 💪🏼💪🏼 to seat them in the trans !!!
No torque specs?
Here is a list of Torque specs for the 10th gen Si and Type R! www.dropbox.com/s/as77mn4lulvfs5u/Torque-Specs-Si-and-Type-R.pdf?dl=0
He said good n tight, what more do you need?
need better lighting
No worries Amon, Check out our whole line of lights here > sptoolsusa.com/collections/specialty-tools/Lighting
@@SPTOOLSUSA Thanks, will do. Although I was talking about the new shop, it looks dark and the video quality would have been much better with better lighting. Great job taking me through the process though, i’m looking to do this on my sisters car soon.
@@SPTOOLSUSA maybe it’s just because you’re under the car, again though great job anyways!
@@ygfromig Thanks bud, We have a new series on a build we're doing and will have the teaser out possibly tomorrow. Make sure to subscribe. You don't see many of these on the road here in the US! Thanks for the support🤘
