Removing CV shaft - Honda Foreman Forums : Rubicon, Rincon, Rancher and Recon Forum

Hey,

I have a 2008 Honda Rincon and I am trying to remove the rear cv shaft from the differential. I've taken everything apart but I cant remove the shaft from the differential. I've tried to push it in then pop it out but it won't come out. Does anybody have any advice on how to take it out

the cv shafts have a c-clip on the end of shaft and are a real pain the ass to pull out .JUST KEEP PULLING ,IT WILL COME

Alright I wasn't sure if there was a reason why it wasn't coming out. Ill go try again.

Thanks

get that thing parrralel with the diff opening and push in then pull out,, a screwdriver might be need to pry n it a lil

Alright Eagle On thanks ill try it, that shaft seems impossible to take out. I'm at the point now that I think I'm going to break it haha. I was looking at the parts layout and it seems that there is a snap ring holding it back

here is the URL of the diagram. The snap ring is number 3 on the diagram

a quick jar from a pry bar between the inner cv and the diff housing usually get them to release for me.
