2007 Kia Sedona passenger side CV axle replacement [INVOLVED] 

Used video for 2011 Sorento lx. Super helpful, pretty much step by step. Thanks a ton for making video. Successful install!!!

100 car repair karma points for making this video I had to go at my axle nuts with an angle grinder to get it loose you can do it whout taking the brakes off, just be careful to not pull on the lines also, I just disconnect at the strut and tie rod and leave the ball joint, it pulls back and you can get the axle out no prob

Thanks for the video however the cause of your recurring problem might be the worn carrier bearing of the intermediate shaft and therefore the wobble.

Thanks for posting this video! Good job explaining the steps.

3 chains, a come-along, your backyard deck post, a shade tree backyard mechanic video if i ever saw one. "And the Oscar goes to,,,,,," LOL

My mechanic took the shocks off to get the axles out of my family's 08 Sedona, he didn't separate the ball joints or calipers, however. Both CV axles came out relatively easy. The Rockauto axles (Trakmotive) has vibrations at 30mph. Really disappointed. I'm saving the old axles for a rebuild eventually.

Thanks for this video man, it helped tremendously.

Thanks for video Scott L

really old video now. but if you remember.... were the replacement cv axle was it factory or was it from amazon? i might have to change mine and don't want to do it twice. best.

Good job! I have the same style of video making... on my 2008 Kia Sedona - do you have the torque specifications?

😂😂😂 We didnt see you in action fighting with that axle trying to remove it 🤪🤪🤪 We need the full session 🤨🤣🤣🤣 a chain and hook 🧐🧐🧐 God help you with this nightmare

My 2011 Sedona had both drive shafts replaced in a garage. New shafts were aftermarket as Kia dealer wanted 1000Cad a piece +tax . I found that aftermarket parts were vibrating during rapid acceleration. Changed them a couple times new ones were still vibrating. Mechanic told me he was not able to find the cause. The only thing that was changed were both drive shafts. Is it your experience as well? Did you notice if aftermarket drive shafts caused vibration during acceleration compared to original parts? Thank you.

The carrier bearing is bad too. Do both.

genius! thanks

Thankfully. *****👍👍👍👍👍

Thanks!

When you tighten down the lower ball joint, does the weight of the vehicle have to be on that component?

Scott L, Good job

I like to use the chain with a 20lb weight disc

Never sieize much better than grease, although grease is better than nothing!

Your intermediate shaft splines are probably worn which is ruining the cv axle splines . I would replace the intermediate shaft also

I'm assuming you need an alignment after this correct?

I used a pry bar, never seen that chain method

Hello. Lari here. Got a 2012 Sedona. Are you using a driver side shaft and installing at that spline separation?

did you reuse the clip on the intermediate shaft?? my axle didnt come with a new one

I hope that wasnt your wifes Cake' knife....🛠🤔

Did you do the driver side too,

Ok

Where do you live its so rusty for brand New one year old part?
