Hey all,

Hope someone can help me out. Is there any way to remove the inner CV joints rather than using circlip pliers? I have circlip pliers, however they have round ends... and I need to remove a 'snap clip'. The 'snap clip' has no holes in the ends...

I dont want to take the whole engine apart if I can avoid it.

This is the last thing I have to do b4 getting the engine out...

Strugglin...

you mean that sit in the diff housing ? you get a flat head screwdriver and pry them out...

So i run a flat head down beside the diff housing.. and it should come away? I thought that I had to remove a snap ring from the front of the CV joint...

Thanks, I removed the ring on the inside of the CV boot and then put a skrewdriver next to the diff housing and just prised it away. Worked a treat!
THanks!
