red vtec 203 Posted August 10, 2014 Report Share Posted August 10, 2014 If I pull the drive shafts from the gearbox, with the method of pulling the spiders from the bearings, do I risk the bearings and needle rollers falling out? Someone has told me I need to watch for this. Any help apprciated.

Gold FFM Sparky 2,930 Posted August 10, 2014 Gold FFM Report Share Posted August 10, 2014 Only if you're really, REALLY rough. Just make sure suspension is sufficiently dismantled, undo gaiter, and gently pull out. Then bag it. Only ever had one come apart, and that was my own stupidity.
