1992 Ford Festiva Removing CV joint from axle
Hi,
I am trying to remove the CV joint from the axle while the inner part of the axle is still sitting in the gearbox.
Is there a way to remove the CV from the axle without removing the whole axle?
It seems to be held in with a clip of some sort, but I cannot see one! There is about 1mm of play on the shaft with the CV.
Or how do I remove the whole axle if this is the only way?
Thanks!

Use a ball peen hammer and just tap it off! I recommend the remanufactured axle, just use two prybars or large screwdrivers and pop out the old axle, put a bucket under it!
