Thanks bro!! Your my number one favorite mechanics
I watch and learn from you I appreciate your honesty knowledge I can’t thank you enough !!
Nice video! You got off easy with that disconnect coming out of the oil pan so well. These things are often a nightmare! If you take the nut off of the outer tie rod ball joint you won't have to fight with the steering knuckle. As long as the tie rod doesn't get turned it won't affect the alignment.
I get to do this job next Saturday.
This is perfect! I have to do mine this weekend so this will certainly be used as my guide. Thanks!
extremely helpful video; you showed me that it's not just my CV joint that's bad, but also my front axle disconnect assembly. I was wondering about the play I had and the other trailblazer CV video didn't show play like I had but this one did.
Enjoyed the video, thank you.
Thank you!
Thanks this was helpful
Thank you 4 make it easy
had to do my cvs and disco today itll be my 2nd awd disco im on. i keep all my old discos and im gonna take the 3 and build me another awd disco as a spare. lifted on 33s is fun lol

@@erichall3595 huh?? lol
A good video..thanks...
What were your symptoms? I have a vibration/shaking that i feel mainly in floorboard at highway speeds...65mph+ only....i do have a lot of play in this part...i can shake the cv joint where it goes into the axle disconnect and i get a lot of play
You just saved my bacon. Thank you
I actually drove with my shaft out for a few weeks because the bering cage on the cv busted during a hella snow storm. Got under there and cut the boot out of the part in the diff to keep junk out then left the nut on the hub. Just leave the bolted end on. knock out the bering cage with a chisel. Then cap the end the goes into the selector.
nice job.
the napa cvs are the best bc they are 5 ribbed boots i use a pipe clamp on mine because its less likely to pull the boot off at flex
That chipmunks album is 🔥
if you take a long pipe (i actually used a pickle fork) and put it on the bottom of the cv shaft smack it a couple times with a hammer will pop the cv right out.
Good video, would like to see what was wrong with the axle.
he said the axle had play in it
This is the same job I gotta do too but on both sides the bearings are all shot I was curious on how t hu is was taken out on these types of SUVS GM never made this like this on any other that's very interesting on how they built this like that in this particular model
U get the best of both types of passenger vehicles and suvs…..if it’s in 2wd the turning radius is better then a small ca can do and not too bad in awd…4wd it has enough ft lbs of torque at the back wheels it pushes its rear end out and doggy tracks in mud when not applying the gas pedal and just letting it coast…if these things weren’t so damned high maintenance and the parts quality so bad they barely last a year..,I’ve had mine for 7 years…it loves to be worked on and given new parts lol….but the pig has kept me alive when most vehicles would have folded…I just put it back together every time a deer ends itself with my trailblazers front end lol …wish I could find a v8 version!
Is there a video showing how to do the driver side? I've the passenger but this driver side is something else.
there is no disconnect on the drivers side. there is the cv axel going directly into the differential gears.
Thanks!
Good video.. you made it look easy to fry out that housing. Anyways, im.working on same trailblazer, I got the axle out, but I have hard time frying off the whole housing disconnect assembly. I took out 4 main bolts that holds it, well in fact I went go ahead and took the last 4 bolts. I still can't fry out the back end, its like stuck there pretty good. Any suggestions of how to get this out? Thanks.
Pry it out. Its pretty much the only way imo
I realize this reply is to a 3 month old comment. But it may help others, and that's the point, right?
The disconnect is corrosion bonded to the oil pan. After removing the 4 bolts that hold the disconnect to the oil pan, take a hammer and lightly tap the side of the housing towards the ground. Then tap it the other way. Don not separate the two halves of the disconnect until it is out of the vehicle. Do this 3 or 4 times to break loose the bond. Now try and gently pry it out, just a bit. Once it moves, push it back in, then pry it out a little bit more. Repeat the in and out process until it comes free. Trying to forcibly pry it out will almost always result in the back of the disconnect breaking off in the oil pan. Then you have to pull the intermediate shaft out and cut the broken housing out.Before you install the new unit, put some anti-seize on the back of the housing.
What's is the name of the piece that the Cv axle is stuck in?
Could improperly installing a new CV axle cause issues with your 4WD? Last Spring my buddy changed out my drivers side CV axle and it seemed like it clicked in correctly, I was watching him do it. Didn’t try the 4WD until recently and there’s a problem. It engages but makes a loud KINK sound when I drove it down the block slow. It sounded bad so I put it bad in 2WD and curious now if that axle wasn’t installed right. Appreciate any input.
My intermediate shaft came out with the disconnect. Any idea if the long or the short end is supposed to stick out?
Thank you God???
I got a 2005 trailblazer. I had it for 3 months, then I noticed the upper front ball joint running on the tire. I went to replace it, then after inspecting it, realized this car had no cc axles.. is that normal? It looks like something should go there. But if so, wouldn't the wheel bearings have gone out already?
My disconnect assemble broke at the very end, I had to pull it out seperatly from the CV axle as i didn't realize it needed replaced any ideas on how to remove the broken piece?
How do you get the intermediate shaft out? Pull it?
@Busy Worx He is talking about the intermediate driven shaft that goes through the oil pan not the CV axle its self as I assume he has to remove the differential & that intermediate driven shaft has to come out in order to remove the differential !
Everything was well show good job on detail only thing I didn't like about your video is a used a torque stick and you didn't check the lug nuts with a torque wrench this is a big No-No in any shop can never trust torque stick I was always taught in every shop ever been in mechanic trust that torque stick mechanic can't trust but that's just a saying it's not worth the extra two minutes of using a torque wrench the right way besides that everything was very well detailed and well shown
Now see the part he replaced the axle disconnect I just started hearing a metal grinding sound yesterday coming from mine yesterday so I’m sure the gears and bearings are shit in it my quest is tho if I don’t use 4wd will it be ok like is the shaft inside the oil pan connected to that while not in 4wd I don’t have the money to fix this right now and have no choice I gotta use my truck
If my axle on passenger side is making a clicking and grinding noise coming from the other part you removed that the axle goes into is it that part that messed up on my truck
I need to change the driver's side axle bearing. Is it internal? Do you pull the housing cover and access it or do you have to drop the whole differential?
Good video by the way. Need one for driver's side.
Drivers side is internal.
After watching a few videos I realized the differential has to come all the way out to change the axle bearing on the driver's side. The guy that designed this needs to be fired from GM.
I 100% agree. I just pulled both half shafts and pulled the front drive shaft. I don't have the time or patience and I refuse to give in to GM on this one.
The really sad part about pulling that diff out is you gotta take the motor mounts lose and jack up the engine without breaking the throttle body off of it. I saw one video where the guy took the body mount bolts out and jacked the body up far enough for it to come out.
One thing I noticed was that there wasn't an ABS ring on the outer CV joint/axle, but the ABS cable was moved. I have so many questions.
Good eye ! I’m sure he had to tear it all apart when that abs light kicked on ! Lol I know some you have to transfer the abs rings from old to new ..
But all in a good vid to guide ya through this procedure
I retract my comment! As I started taking mine apart I learned it isn’t like some these ones do not have an abs ring on the cv shaft ...
I will say you can get the shaft out with disconnecting the upper control arm the bottom you don’t have to mess with
Only saying to help
And again this was a really good video it gave me a lot of insight on what’s expected 👍🏻
@@juiced71 the sensor ring is inside the wheel hub to keep dirt out! So you can go off-roading.
@@DBZLEGENDS thanks for the reply
I replaced my daughters bearing plate and it snapped at the oil pan had to air chisel etc that was fun!!
Now I have to do the drivers side transfer case seal ugh ! But I must say it’s been a good truck just seems like it’s always the little things ….
why did you replace this? did you have a code? how do you tell that its not working?
worn gears, failed cv joints or or bad bearings won’t throw a code. each failure has its own sound; whine, clunk, vibration.
how did that amazon front axle disconnect hold up for you? i took a shot and ordered one from them to install? has good ratings from a lot of people on there, just hoping everything works out ok
I’m going through all of this right now too, I have to drop the oil pan on a 5.3 envoy and change the O ring on the pick up tube, noticed this disconnect is shot in the process, most likely going to order the Amazon one also to hopefully save a few bucks.
@@jodypierson3137 id say go for it. i just did mine and my 4 high and 4 low both engage and work. not to mention i made my car a lot quieter in the process.
i saved my old disconnect and am gonna look into how much it costs to buy the parts and rebuild it. there are only a handful of parts you need and itd sure be nice to have a rebuilt oem one on standby in case anything happens
Need a video of the removal of the transfer case for a engine swap?
Can you drive it with ps ft axle removed ?
No, the CV shaft holds the bearing halves together, and the hub from coming out. If you do, hub will come out of the wheel bearing, and the only thing to stop it will be the rotor interfering with the caliper, but you won't be able to move the vehicle without a flatbed from whatever right turn you were trying to make.
Not on trailblazers or envoys lol…not the same as other suvs
@@w8what575 true actually drove with my shaft out for a few weeks because the bering cage on the cv busted during a hella snow storm. Got under there and cut the boot out of the part in the diff to keep junk out then left the nut on the hub.

everything is not bad, but the wheel is set. incorrectly tightened the nuts
How is name the part
Did you really just use only a screw driver to get the housing off?
I wish mine was being that easy.
I cant even get it to move with a hammer.
