only b series have half shafts.

is the car swapped?

Hey got all awesome info from Team Rukus thanks so much when i do this tomrrow maybbe ill post a diy if it works out lol
thanks

no problemo

back in the day when i was doing trannys they were all called half-shafts..
10 minute job on a hoist..
pop the wheel, pop the axle nut, pop the lower ball joint, pull whole shebang out of the way...take a crowbar and pop the shaft from the tranny

haha you make it sound so easy, and then a stuck ball joint happens, or a stuck axle nut, joy joy joy :D

those are always fun:nods:

stuck driveshaft splines are nooooo fun.

BFH <-- My friend :D

BFH didnt do anything.
btw you wouldnt want to use a Hammer on it to much anyway as it will bend the shaft that goes thru the spindle and then that would be another bitch to get it out.

hammering it straight on the end wont hurt, or a slide hammer will help too.
