Just stumbled on your video. WTF hasn't any other CZcamsr mention the circlip's position? You just earned yourself a subscriber. What a time saver!!!!!!
I had the opposite effect. The clip got mangled with the opening down. I had to return the axle. With the replacement I put the opening on top and the ring sagging and it rolled right in.
Very good and thank you so much for explaining that lock ring and turning that around. Good job.
Nice tip about getting the cv axle end ring lined up so it goes in easily
Love your videos! Thanks for sharing. If you dont have a giant socket, you can use the old seal as a buffer when tapping it in.
Yeah but then the old seal gets stuck in and then when pulling the old one you can damage the new one.
Great Video. I loved the tip too. Thank You!
I found that if you just remove the 2 nuts/1 bolt from the lower ball joint/control arm assembly, separate the connection, push the axle out of the hub then pivot the steering knuckle and axle in opposite directions the axle will come out. Saves some time.
@@b0ssh0gg I haven't noticed a change in the drive.
Totally agree
Cool video short and to the point , thank you .
5:05 awesome tip! about the clip position!
awesome ring tip mate !
Great video very helpful
Thank you Philip!
Great video. Thank you.
Great video, thank you
Hey Clint! What can cause the seal to wear? Is it usually something regarding the axle or trans? Do the inner axle cv joints get loose/worn and cause a pushing down on that seal?
5:07 pure gold!!!
I want to kiss his forehead for that information xD
@@Sage-fi7czright!!! The wizard trick!
I changed my oils seal 3 months ago, recently started leaking again, bought a new axle and seal when i replaced them. It's got me doubting myself, did i set the seal the right way?? Just order a new seal and the 1" 13/16 socket in case i need it, hopefully i can do this without disconnecting the tie rod, i don't wanna have to do another alignment. Thanks for any tips.
do u know if the 1 -13/16 socket fit for the scion seal also ?
Thank nice video
Very good.
Thanks
I'm having to do the drivers side CV Axel on my 1998 Toyota Camry V6 3.0 cause I noticed the boot started to leak the grease. Well and I also noticed when doing my oil change the I had a little leak around that area so I was wondering if it is a pain after you pull the Axel out how hard is it to get the seal as well. Oh and can't seem to find the right Axel seal for the car if anyone's know the exact name for that seal I'd really appreciate the advice so I can order it and get it all replaced.
Great video I have a question my friend with my Yaris 2007. I replaced CV axle and noticed I damaged a o ring seal but the other one on your video perfect I have no leak so far but abs came on . Did some research but don't know where the o ring seal that I damaged sits and why abs is on thanks ?
Oil seal Yaris Corolla is the same
What year Corolla is this. Will the seal parts in the description fit a 2019 corolla 1.8 liter?
Niceeeees my friend
clint hi I have a question first grate video and I love the tip about the ring position. is this the inner seal or outer ? I ask because I am doing this job soon but I first need to know what to order from the parts store inner or outer
The seal that I replaced was the seal on the transmission. There are two, one for each side and they are different.
Hello, thank you so much for this great video. I did replace the seal and the cv axale for the 5th time and it leaks oil from the seal a few days later. I thought maybe the balancer since the new cv axale do not have it. The original CV axale has balancer to the passenger and now they sell them without a balancer.
I learned from the comments that to use the transmission oil for the interior of the seal and do not use grease on the outside circumference of the seal.
Is there anyone who had this issue and fixed it?
Thank you for your help!
You might have scratched the crank itself.... Or uneven install of new seal..... Yes inside should be lubed with oil.. No grease on outside of seal
How to check for selecting gears
Great video. I have a question for you. I changed the CV axle and axle oil seal on my Toyota. After installation, I noticed the new CV axle didn't have that metal dust cover on the transaxle side of the CV axle. Is this a critical part? In other words, will the missing metal dust cover compromise the integrity of the axle oil seal? Thanks.
That is a very good question. I have no idea. Sorry. Dust covers are usually installed for a reason though ....
Hello. I am really sorry I am seeing this question a year later, but here is the answer. The duct cover is important. it protects and prolongs the life of your seal which means you will not have to repeat the job any time soon, the potential for leaks will be smaller. I hope it helps. I have installed seals without the dust cover and some time later, I have had a leak through the seal. My DIY experience has taught me the following lesson: when installing CV axle seals, use the specialized service tools and you will be done in no time with no repairs to repeat, no headaches to endure, and MOST IMPORTANT, no risk to wear out your transmission (manual) gears due to low transmission fluid levels.) With that notion mentioned, if an experienced mechanic does the replacement of the seals, then, I defer to what she/he says. ..... (but I would still prefer to use the Specialized Service Tools).
In California no dust, mud , dirty... Will be fine.. If you 4x4 in dirty muddy environment it will eventually cause a problem..
Métal cover protect the car for rocks ...etc
thanks for the video. You said that it is not engine oil leak, then what type of oil is leaking?
The car has a manual transmission so it requires gear oil, a very thick oil, with a much higher viscosity than motor oil....
This was shown on the Passenger Side?
You replaced both seals?
Nicely done, Clint Hightower.
Yes, both seals were replaced on both sides.
@@Engineerboy100 Thank you for taking your time out for us, Clint Hightower.
@@Engineerboy100 it's the same seal on both sides right? or are they different?
@Hashira Amarasuriya they're different sizes.....one is bigger than the other....be sure when ya buy them one says (left) and the other says (right)
Do I have to torque the last 30mm nut.
Or is long wrench socket enough to tight it.
It does have a torque spec and should be torqued according to your shop manual.
Awesome video. Say what year is the car?
Car is a 1994 Toyota Corolla Station Wagon. I've had it for nearly 30 years. I love it and will probably have it for decades to come.
Great informative video. But I have an issue doing it on my 2002 Lexus ES 300. The new seal is leaking. What am I doing wrong?
The seal might not be in square or you may have damaged it during installation. It's hard to say.
Don't grease or lube the new seal on the part that touches the area where the seal "seats." None of the metal to metal part of the seal should be oiled or greased or lubes. It's a friction fit that must be tight. Very tight.
Find and use the Specialized Service Tool. It will eliminate the headaches and leaks.
Tough job
Hi Mr. Clint-I just bought a 1994 Toyota Corolla Wagon Base Automatic. Is this the same situation as your Wagon? I am not able to do this myself, How much ballpark figure should a mechanic charge me? I really appreciate your video and your time.
I'm not sure how much a shop would charge but I would charge about $150 per side for a job like this but I don't usually work on other peoples vehicles.
@@Engineerboy100 Thank you Mr. Clint. I am very grateful for your wisdom. I am not very mechanical but I am a good farm hand. I will be watching all your videos since we have the same model and year wagon. Mine seems to have a groaning to it when I hit 50mph or greater. Do you think it could be my rack and pinion going? I dont see any leaks but I dont know what else it could be. The steering seems fine. Makes a little noise at faster speeds to when I pull it to the left but not to the right. If you had any experience or knowledge of this please share. I really appreciate you getting back to me. it means alot Sir.
💯💯💯
Did it leak? Alot of people say not to use grease
The gearbox oil doesn't come out wen you pull de drive shaft? I have a corolla from 2004 and I have to replace the shaft but the mechanic said that the oil has to be changed. Is that right?
Yes, the oil must come out first.
I got an 07 toyota avalon, just put in a new cv axle. They say now I need to replace that seal. Any advice sir?
Yes, always install a new seal when changing an axle shaft.
You can just take the 30 mm out and it will break the pin. No need to do the pin separately.
What if my Elantra have 269 miles on it n I change da axle n seal have no leaks should I change da seal then or use same seal
Change the seal.
Do you need to change the rubber seal everytime you remove the cv axle shaft?
No. if the seal is in good shape and you are careful not to nick it when putting the shaft back in, as long as it doesn't leak, there is no need to change it.
Why would you not replace it? You have it all torn apart. Eventually it will leak. It's a cheap part = replace it every time you have access to it.
What year is this car
What kind of grease you put on the seal ?
I use redline synthetic gear grease. amzn.to/3k3Lq8f
What did you use to hammer the cv seal?
I used a ratchet extension to gently tap the seal until it seated evenly.
6:44 1"13/16 Socket
Is it the same seal for both sides?
On the Toyota aygo, the seals are a different size on each side. I surmise it is the same for yours.
Changed it many times, but it is not getting better, it is leaking again and again
What year is this toyota corolla ?
1994
Men This Toyota is manual transmission or Automatic ?
Manual 5-speed transmission.
Was this a automatic or manual car? Also what's the Toyota part #?
This was a manual transmission. Sorry, not sure of the part number of the seals.
I got toyota part #9031135065 the parts nbers toyota uses are interchangeable. They keep changing it but still same item
Do we need tyre alignment after axle oil seal replacement
Yep.
@@Engineerboy100 i have done car alignment 6 days ago so there is again need or not
What is the number transmisión seal ???
There are two different seals, one for each side. Best to get the part number for your dealer or the local parts store for the side you need.
Thanks 🙏
That’s good information
What if I’m missing the ring ?
I would find a way to replace it even if I had to got to an auto recycler and pull on off a used car, you want that shaft to stay in.
@@Engineerboy100 okay I have no problem getting a new one the thing is finding one since I've been looking all over the internet for it and can't seem to find it.
Hellooooh! You removed the strut from the knuckle and never said anything. I noticed it, but many people who have not spent a lot of time on suspension systems won't, and like many other CZcams videos where important steps are missing, DIYERERS will hit a wall and won't know why. Much of your information was very good. However, with information from videos, it makes these jobs very difficult for the average DIYERER, which is your target market, Please provide complete information in your videos.
I mentioned it at 2:10 but I called it an axle smh
I thought the lip of the seal went inside the transmission, am I wrong?
Transmission have a transmission seal.... Rear motors have a real motor seal....2 different seals 2 different sizes.. Since your already there always change both!!
These seals are badly designed, easy to break and get old. They need to redesign shaft inputs.
you missed an important step. grease the seal on the inside, or you are going to burn it out. and then you have to do it all over again. use trans gear oil
@@karkule5919 I think you are talking about automatic transmissions. they need to be running to get an accurate measurement. manual transmissions don't need to be running
Very good and thank you so much for explaining that lock ring and turning that around. Good job.
