Driver's side axle half shaft replacement on a 1998 Toyota Corolla.
Today we're up in Clarksburg to replace a front axle on a 1998 Toyota Corolla, The driver's side outer axle boot is torn wide open and collecting lots of dirt and sand. The axle is just starting to do the typical "marbles in a can" clicking at full lock to the left. This is a REALLY EASY replacement. The hardest part (usually) is getting the locking clip, that keeps the axle locked into the transmission, to disengage and come out. On THIS particular job the axle nut became the challenge. UNFORTUNATELY the video footage where I stood on the breaker bar, and pounded on the end of the breaker bar (part inserted in the socket) until the nut freed up. This repair is usually simple and easy enough that anyone who can change a tire, can change the axle as well, with fairly basic tools!

I do most, if not all repairs, with tools that I carry around in my overloaded 1997 Crown Victoria Police Interceptor. I perform "On-Site" braking and suspension repairs, amongst other diagnostics and services. My tools consist mostly of Craftsman, a few Stanley, Snap-On, Husky, Pittsburgh, and S&K tools. Scan tools include hand held Actron(s) DVOMs, and test lights. I also currently use a Zurich ZR Pro, for advanced and bidirectional diagnostics as well as a Snap-On Verus Pro, for more detailed diagnostics. I'm always expanding my collection, based on need and convenience.
