propshaft UJ

<< < (5/5)

freeagent:
a pair of 9/16 ring spanners will be all you need to get the prop off, you can buy a snazzy propshaft tool for about £16, they are brilliant (must get one) but if you are on a budget you can do without it.

I tend to jack one corner up (only buy 1/2" or so) and get myself in a position where I can spin the lifted wheel with my foot, makes life a bit easier...

I'd probably do both UJ's at once, its as much hastle getting the prop off as it is to swap out the UJ's...
