well im new to the forum , and im really hoping someone on here can help me.
Im doing the clutch on my wife's car and im trying to get the driveshaft out of the car , i have the hanyes manual and i did as it said and bolted the center suppot back up. but ive tried just about everything and it will not come out of the transmission or the rear end. does any one have know whats going on here , has anyone had this happen and have tips to get this thing off with out damaging it. ive found talking to people on the forums usaully helps way more. And if anyone has any more tips for the job at hand i would really appreciate it.
Thanks

 

any body ...?

 

they don't come out.

they bolt up.... there is 6' 6mm allen bolts that hold the joint to the flanges

 

Yeah i have those out and everything i read says it just comes down, I have it unbolted on both ends and its not coming off. So I'm trying to figure out why and if there's something i didn't do or something i can do. i cant find a break down to show the parts or anyone that has taken pictures of the same job so i can get an idea. I just would rather not break things.

 

If you have them out you'll see a small groove going around near where the grease cap is.

Put a screw driver up to it and hit it with a hammer and it will pop off. Its probably never been removed on either end

 

well i have the grease cap slide back and im guessing its just two mated surfaces on both ends , it kinda appears like it slides in the piece connected to the rear end and transmission ive been hitting it pretty hard still no movement been trying to search the wed and find a pic of one out and having no luck. i work on diesel trucks and havent had one come out this hard . i just done want to damage this thing. i appericate the help alot its just not working . i feel like im doing something wrong.

 

any one got any more ideas before i take an air hammer to this thing
