Replacing the CV joint on the driveshaft first requires removing the driveshaft itself, then securing it in a vice and working vigorously to extract the joint. Start by removing the clips and cutting the old gaiter.

Cut the cage to free the joint cross and then cut the tracks of the core to complete the disassembly by removing the circlip. Next, insert the small clip, the gaiter, and the circlip, compressing it with a collar clip to allow for the insertion and seating of the new joint, tightening the nut before striking to avoid damaging the thread.

Finally, remove the collar clip, fill the joint with the appropriate grease, position the gaiter, and secure it with new clips.
