1996 to 2002 Caravan Drivers CV Axle Step by Step Change Part 3 of 4

Description: Tool List and things needed are below.
This is how I changed my CV Axle on my 2002 Grand Caravan Sport Mini. Like all automotive work, it can be dangerous as the job requires you to remove tires and crawl under the van. So this video is for entertainment on how I changed my CV Axle. I am not a professional mechanic so if you decide to perform anything you see in this video you do it at your own risk and claim all liability associated with doing your own automotive repairs of any kind.
