I'm needing to change the inner driveshaft boot on the drivers side in my 32..

Just wondering what the process is in removal of parts etc, can you take the shaft out of the diff and slip it on that way, or does the hub / cv and all the rest need to come off then it slid down the shaft?

Wasn't able to find any info / service manual guide for this!!

you'll need to undo the lower control arm and sway bar from the driver's side hub and the nut for the driveshaft to swing the hub out and get the driveshaft out. You should be able to pop the diff end of the driveshaft out with some levering and pulling without having to remove the diff cover. It's a tripod type CV so cut the old boot off and there's a retaining ring stopping the tripod from pulling out of the case which you need to remove. Thorough cleaning to get rid of the old grease and don't forget to slip the small end of the boot on the driveshaft before re-assembly. Be a good opportunity to do the outer one too, if it's looking close to replacement time.

    • I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.
    • Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust
    • Stock O2 sensors are narrowband. They're useless once you're away from stoich. IE, useless for what you're trying to do. 10:1 will read the same as 14:1 from the stock O2 sensors. That is, they'll read rich. The same level of rich.
    • I agree once misfires happen it's basically worthless, but the hope is you can see what's happening in the run up to that. 
    • You should totally get a Brumby, and then come pick up the Subaru Liberty GTB I have here. EJ25 Turbo, 6 speed manual from the sti (just no dccd), and the good rear diff. Drop all that into a Brumby and go have fun!
