CV Axle Replacement

[upther]

So, passenger side CV axle is busted. Calling around now to see if anyone locally has one in stock so I can change it out tomorrow.

I tried searching on here but couldn't find a walk through on replacing them. Does one exist on here or elsewhere?

It's my first time so what should I expect? What tools will I need? I've got access to an electric impact but not sure it will have enough oomph. Any other advice?

well, I found this one and also this one. Feeling pretty confident now.

Awesome! Thanks for updating your post with links! Made the search a lot easier.

It's fairly easy. I didn't even remove the caliper bracket or the rotor. With the caliper off I got enough movement out of the knuckle to remove and reinstall the axle.
