Does anybody know how it splits from the shaft?
I have a feeling its a snap ring that just wants shocking but I dont want to damage anything if it isnt Confused

To be honest I have never done a joint before its allways been a full shaft replacment, and this is just replacing the cv boot so I dont have a new joint for referance.
How do the Isuzu ones come off ?

its a big circlip that holds cv joint on be careful not to lose bearings when you pull the outer casing off hope that makes sense Smile

if when the boot is removed you can't see any circlip on the shaft then it will be hold the shaft and knock the joint off with a hammer you will then find a spring circlip inside
