  • Slide Hammer

    From Mark Hofmann@1:261/1304 to All on Thu Jul 2 15:21:59 2015

    Finally got my first experience using a slide hammer this past weekend. Was replacing the other CV axle on the passenger side of my Monte Carlo and was unable to pull the axle out of the transmission using my own tools.

    Ran to the store and got the slide hammer with axle puller end and a few whacks
    and the axle came out.

    My 2002 Monte Carlo now has two new CV axles on the front end. My next project
    is painting the calipers on the Monte and 2012 Charger and replacing all rotors
    and pads on both. Also doing new brakes on the 2001 Durango.

    Been a busy few months working in Mark's Garage.. :)

    Kewl! My left rear CV joint or wheelbearing is making a rumbling noise. Wish
    I had the resources to do it but it's my daily driver.
