Replacing Left Front Drive Shaft
Hey Guys
Anyone have experience in replacing a front half shaft.
My CV Boot tore and I can hear the bearings on the driver side.
Bought a complete assembly from Rock Auto, going to get on it this weekend...
Seems straight forward, just wonder how difficult it is to get the top spindle joint free.

Make sure you clean / hit those half shaft bolts with some PB blaster / hot wrench if they're really stubborn (torch). When I did my rears I stripped one or two of those bolts and it's a pain in the *** to back them out once that's happened. You're probably looking at a three to four hour job depending on your experience.
