      show the man/woman where to get the info he or she seeks by at least providing a link. he/she specifically asked for online resources.

      try this link for an accord shop manual specific to our beloved cb7.
      you will need adobe acrobat reader (link available on the above linked page).

          to take the whole cv joint out you have to remove the wheel then take that big nut from the middle of the rotor off....take the car out of park and it should just pop out
          I don't lie, I bullshit

                      How should it be done then? I already have the 36mm socket and I have a slide hammer.

                      P.S. My car is standard

                        It may cost a little extra, but it would be easier to replace the whole driveshaft complete with boots

                          Haha its a little more into depth than that. I would recomend just getting a new one because its already 10+ years old and replacing just the boot is difficult and might take some time.
