Re: [doc] CV Joint Removal / Repacking / Replacement......

[Martin Gutkowski <martin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Same as for CV boots - undo the bolts that hold the joint to the hub / 
gearbox flange. It just comes out as one unit Pop the cap off each end 
and you'll find a small circlip buried in the grease. Once that's off, 
the whole joint just slides off the shaft. I would caution against 
dismantling the joint completely. It has 6 balls which will fall out and 
it's a bit of a mission to reassemble. I think you'll find you can clean 
them quite well without taking them apart
