Section "Suspension and Axle -- Front Drive Shaft (4WD)" (pages SA-36 -- SA-41 in my copy). Detailed description and pics. Looks reasonably involved, and that you have to pull the whole halfshaft with both CV joints. Calls for a snap ring expander and a brass bar and brass hammer. -Alex '97 T100 4x4 5-speed '97 T100 4x4 5-speed Lots of desert pinstriping Re: cv's [Re: toyT100] #951700 07/03/09 09:46 PM Joined: Aug 2003 Posts: 676 Oregon garym Rock Warrior Axle replacement This is for the shafts. If I remember right, for the effort involved changing out the boots and the cost of the boot kits vs. rebuilt axles could be the best way to go. Otherwise, buy the kits, cut the old bands off and remove the old boots. Relube and replace the boots and bands. I have not done the last part so have no idea if there is a problem getting the new boots over anything. I know that lube is pretty nasty. If you have enough miles on it the CVs could be bad anyway. 1997 T-100 4X4 Xcab,Warn Hubs 02 Camry LE 2008 Yaris Moderated by  4x4Wire, Dandeman, ErikB, kewlynx  Hop To Mitsubishi Forums ------  Mitsubishi 4x4 and SUV Tech  Mitsubishi Diesels  Mitsubishi ArchiveToyota Forums ------  Early Toyota Trucks  Toyota 4Runner, FJ Cruiser &...  T100 & Tundra Forum  Tacoma Forum  Toyota Tech ArchiveJeep Forums ------  Jeep Talk  Jeep TechIsuzu Forums ------  Isuzu 4x4 & SUV Talk  Isuzu 4x4 & SUV Tech  Isuzu DieselsKia Forums ------  Kia Talk  Kia Sportage & Sorento TechOff Topic Chat ------  4x4 Gallery  Off-Topic Chat  Recreational Access & Land ...  Politics4xForums ------  Outdoor Gear  General 4x4 Discussion  Tools and Fabrication  General Communications  Amateur Radio  GPS and MapsParts Bin ------  Private Party - Garage Sale  Private Party - Items wanted  Vendors, Hot Deals, Group Buys4x4Wire Back Yard ------  Suzuki Forum  AZ Crawler Crew  Cal-Nev Crew  General Ford 4x4 & SUV Forum  General Dodge 4x4 & SUV Forum  General Chevy 4x4 & SUV ForumFeedback & Testing ------  Problems, Questions, Suggestions4x4Wire Staff ------  Forum Moderators  Problem Threads Print Thread Switch to Threaded Mode 5 Excellent 4 Good 3 Average 2 Bad 1 Terrible View Profile Private Message Follow User Forum Posts View Profile Private Message Follow User Forum Posts View Profile Private Message Follow User Forum Posts
