Well noticed drips of oil on my garage floor a week ago so inspected underneith my baby and she is leaking from the seals on both inboard cvs.
Searched alot and found how to change them but was wondering if there is a way to change the seals without taking the axles out seems i can take the axle tube out to get the passenger side but drivers may be a job to do!

 

if you are referring to the seals where the cv shafts enter the axle/tube then there is no easy way about it... remove cv shafts, pull out old seal, put in new seal, reinstall cv shafts.

 

Alright thanks for the reply looks like ill be tearing into my front end soon. Figured id have to take the half shafts out but wanted to see if anyone had a different way of doing it.

 

on some of the fullsize trucks you can get away with just unbolting the cv;s off the differencial and tieing them up to the side while you do the seals. i dont think s10s have the luxury of that much room though , maybe if you just undo your top ball joint you might be able to pull it out of the way but its not that much more just to remove them fully

 

yea im gonna take the cvs out tomorrow and change the seals got everything i need to do the job and a full day or two to do it, appreciate all the help guys
