Hi,
I recently purchased a new driveshaft from my local dealer and I am planning on replacing it myself. I have replaced driveshafts on various RWD cars and truck in the past and I feel pretty comfortable doing it myself. However I always like to look up other peoples howto's on forums and YouTube prior to doing the work myself. This way I know what to expect and I can prep the proper tools beforehand.
I for whatever reason cannot find any howto's on RWD driveshaft replacements on the forum or YouTube. I came across some 4WD write ups and videos but that is about it.
I was hoping someone can give me some tips on what to expect or any tribal-knowledge on specific ways that it needs to be done. Or is it just a straightforward install?
I even tried to look at the Toyota service manuals for mechanics and they only had write ups on 4WD setups. Which is why I am thinking its going to be a straightforward install.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
