Im completely removing my rack to replace it and I'm doing the cv axle n hub at the same time. Do you think I'll still have to pull off the upper control arm?

WOW, I just picked up a ford F150 and thought I would see what replacing the CV's would take. Compared to the old 1993 Isuzu I had, this is a much easier job! The Isuzu was 10 hours of work, this looks to be 2 to 3 hours.

It's called a steering knuckle. You also failed to mention the stub shaft going into wheel bearing must be correctly aligned.

You don't need to remove tie rod, or upper control arm. Just remove suspension, and drop the cv out the back

You do not have to take off all the ball joints, just take off lower shock and it will come right out the back, just did it so easy

4:53 he puts it back in without applying any high temp wheel bearing grease? Another video showed applying wheel bearing grease first? He also states "now you can remove the jack..I see no jack?

The 6 12 point 12 mm nuts are hard to take off lol

@tija99g.23 Жыл бұрын

Yes just be sure no short cuts MUST be 12 pt 12 mm for tightest fit and DO NOT use Impact wrench at the beginning IF you strip them then YOu have to cut them off . I used 1/2 drive 12mm STD socket, But I sprayed WD PENETRATE OIL ON THEM THE NIGHT BEFORE AND AGAIN That morning they came off fine .

@matthewcruz6932 4 жыл бұрын

It’s not an exact fit at all. Not ONLY THE VIDEO CLEARLY SHOWS that they are completely (different) size (length). Also I’ve follow this video it cost me so much back forth to return this CV axle. It’s better to buy the FORD original PART AND PAY THE EXTRA$120 plus $$ to deal with the back and forth.

@xxdemonshitxx 2 жыл бұрын

I was wondering about that. Dude says they're "identical" even though the shaft in the middle is obviously shorter than the original. That sucks you were misled like that.
