Cv joint help

Just a quickie I'm having trouble getting the joint to go back on over the circlip iv knocked it with a hammer and lump of wood quite hard but it won't seem to go on I followed daves guide the only thing I didn't do was remove the driveshaft as I know you don't have to

 

[gezmeister]

Much easier if you take the driveshaft out bud, any reason why you didn't? Personally i think its easier and less hassle to just take it off

 

[Pyro]

Just couldntbe arced to take it out tbh I'm just worried about hitting it to hard

 

[gezmeister]

I'm sure you'll be fine mate, if you can't get it on though, you'll have to take it off anyway, and you'll wish you had done it in the first place lol

 

[Pyro]

Ok mate I'll give it a smack tomoz

 

[Pyro]

Job done took me about 10 mins lol gave it a smack and cars fine cheers fir the help

 

[gezmeister]
