    I believe that's the idea, although I've never actually done it without just removing the axles.


    If you do just lift the engine with the axles in the half shaft and transaxle, watch to make sure the axles don't hit the shock assembly fork.

      Youll probally rip the boots apart....
      You can seperate them at the tranny with like a crowbar as you lift.
      Some people dont want to take the axle nuts off, I know why lol

          Dont you have to at least remove the drivers side axle (if you have a manual) to remove the engine because of the secondary shaft that is on the drivers side?

              ive tried that method and it doesnt work. the axle shafts just hit the suspension fork. what you can do is disconnect the axles from the tranny/ halfshaft, disconnect the lower ball joint and just swing them out of the way.

              i have to take them all the way out because i need room to move the car back and forth. gotta make use with what i have.

                  disconnect the lower ball joint and the entire spindle will come out of the lower control arm and swing but will pivot on the tie rod that is still connected.

                      Just pull the axles. It's not difficult. If you break something, you're going to be making a lot more work (and expense) for yourself!

                        I have done it both ways. If this is your first rodeo, leaving the CV Axles in is asking for trouble.

                            Is there anyone that can give you a ride to the store? Taking the axles out, which means pulling the axle nut and popping the ball joints, is really the only easy way. You'll be screwed if you damage the axles... you'll then have to take them out AND replace them!
