2005-2009 Subaru Legacy CV Axle Replacement

[@cowdough94]

awesome how to video. I get sick and tired of the talking and the blah blah blah and people wasting time finally a video that just gets down to it gets it done and shows me how to do it I love it

[@russellcoleman759]

Thank you, I was able to replace both front cv axles on my 300K mile USDM 08 legacy GT spec B in about 4 hours start to finish. I expect I would have messed up my camber without your tech tip to mark that bolt, very smart! Torque specs and written descriptions were extremely useful. Great work!

[@gkmeador]

Mind sharing the part #s you used? my '08 b needs the same treatment

[@charger19691]

A perfect repair video. And no silly distracting background music. Perfection.

[@Longtrailside]

Thanks for posting, I enjoy your videos that you put out. If i may help and give a little advice and save your back and less work. The next time that you do another cv axle, this is my tip. Remove tire, cv nut, sway bar link bolt, ball joint nut. Then just push the lower control arm down and pull hub assembly to you, cv pops out, then remove from tranny. It's a really fast way of doing it, and you don't have to deal with the brakes or strut alignment. 3 nuts and its out after the tire is off. Hope this helps for the next time.

[@yzrider53]

Great video, great tips... Thank you. I also bought aftermarket axles and they appeared to be too short... Until I stretched the news ones out. The inner boot held them short... I was able to remove the old ones by "slide hammering" them out, they have enough play to do so. Once again, thank you for the effort you put in to make this video. And, yes... My vibration under acceleration is gone :)

[@fun2soar]

Had done a similar task on my Nissan pulsar years ago, got some really helpful tips from this neat no nonsense video. Good job, really admired the way you professionally use the torque wrench where it really matters. Thanks

Thank you. Glad you enjoyed the video. 👍

[@jeffjohnson8414]

You make it look easy. I've got a 08 outback that I'm tearing apart the front end - hub/bearing, lca, sway bar links, cv axle. I've watched you do all of those. I figured I should be drinking beer in about 37 minutes! Great videos.

Instant sub! Doing my CV axels tomorrow. Can guarantee i will have this video playin by my side as i do it. Next is my 2 front bearings. Just wish i had the cash to do em all at once.

Looks like this will be my next project, of seemingly never ending projects. Great video as always!

[@subzer0962]

[@lancealdrich5499]

When replacing cv joint on Subaru outbacks you don't have to remove brake caliper or caliper bracket. Saves a lot of time.

[@ImpHalla66]

Thx for the video. I have a '07 Outback. Looking at other videos I saw the roll pin at the inner CV. I was dreading that. Looks like this model has the spring snap ring at the differential side - much easier.

[@Animosity00]

Major thanks to you for these videos man. I'm doing CV axles, rack and pinion assembly, PS pump and shocks/struts all at once on my '06 legacy and you have been a big help.

Your videos are great, really useful. I need to do lots to my 2007 outback, first priority fix auto levelling headlights, total pain so far.

[@hansmantis]

Nice video. I usually torque the axle nut after the wheel is back on the ground. That way your working against the tire instead of the transmission.

[@MrSubaru1387]

That's not proper procedure from Subaru. The CV axle nut sets the preload on the wheel bearing. Vehicle weight on the wheel bearing, with the axle nut not properly torqued, can damage the bearing.

Best Subie DIY on YT! Like your style of no rambling monologue, just straightforward info. Looking at purchasing a low mileage 92 SVX. Do these share mechanical components of other Subie’s? I’m concerned about parts availability. Any advice on problems to look for on these?Thanks Mr. Subaru, keep up the good work.

[@MrSubaru1387]

+Keith S. Anderson the transmission is the SVXs Achilles' hell. The SVX doesn't share a lot of crossover with other Subaru models. Parts are starting to get kind of few and far between. Windshields, throttle position sensors, and radiators are hard to come by. Still great cars, just have to be aware that you can't just run to the parts store or through dealership for a lot of items when you have car trouble.

Caution: just did this job and a tension spring from inside the diff seal popped out and got crimped while removing the old axle. It might be smart to have a new seal kit on hand when doing this job. I have an 07 legacy 2.5i sedan with 196k on it. The seal kit is $20 on Amazon. Good luck everyone!

Question should you replace the differential seal when doing this? Is it even apart of replacing the axle?

[@chrisschabowski3583]

I just popped the lower ball joint rather than taking apart brakes or messing with alighnment

[@royquesada3151]

Probably should have turned rotors and replaced pads...if not, would not be necessary to remove to remove cv shaft....

[@dekotaburns1776]

My 02 legacy had that style cv axel come out of the driver's side. Looks nothing like the replacement one for my year legacy

[@dekotaburns1776]

Just to follow up...when I popped the cv axle out of my legacy the inner shaft came out also...stuck roll pin was the culprit...live and learn.😆

[@kkulikov]

I changed axles on my Subaru but I've got vibration on low speed. Looks like aftermarket one's are not the same as OEM parts.

[@cfitzgduke]

What about the axle seal?

[@TomKirkman1]

All you have to do is remove the lower ball joint pinch bolt, swing the knuckle out of the way and pull the axle. And no wheel alignment is then necessary. Why is everybody doing this backwards? Check the Subaru manual - you only have to remove that one bolt to do the job.

[@King_DTA]

[@MrSubaru1387]

Not much on doing your own alignment. You can mark the location of the top camber bolt when replacing the struts to keep it close, but you'll need a real alignment done after.

Hey, just curious... and please don't take my questions as criticism, I'm just trying to learn... why didn't you just take the whole break caliper, brakes, and caliper bracket off at one time? Is it too hard to hang that way?

[@taoh780]

What about rebooting the axles? The inboard axle is easy, but I can't find info on how to disassemble the bearing cage on the outboard side.

[@joepinehill]

thanks for the video. I will replacing the right axle on my 09 Forester Friday. I did the brakes Monday night, and saw speckle of CV grease on the knuckle. The outer boot looks good but must have cracks that open when steering , throwing grease. Any tips to make sure the trans-axle seal is not damaged when removing the old or installing the old? Should you apply a thin film of grease to the stub shaft before installing into the transaxle? I replaced the knuckle, bearing hub, and balljoints 3 months ago, so it should all come apart easily. Im thinking take as much apart as possible is good to make sure the axle goes out and in straight and not cocked is best.

[@MrSubaru1387]

+CenterTree777 at 6:10 was incorrect. The last person to work on the vehicle installed the bolts wrong. The bolt heads should face the rear of the vehicle and nuts face the front.

[@Getchaone24]

Was this on an automatic or manual transmission? I have to do one on an automatic is there anything different? For some reason I recall on bug eye wrx's there were some sort of locking pins on the transmission side that held the axels in ...could be wrong tho. Thanks

[@Jnilsson27]

Is it common that the front inner CV-joints go bad? I have a 2008 outback H6 3.0 and i need to replace both front CV-axels at approx 115000 miles/185000 km. A friend at work has the same model but a 2005 and he has replaced 1 CV-axle due to a bad inner CV-joint.

[@michaelwayne3469]

I'm having trouble with the axle in the rear, it won't go in all the way into the differential. Anyone know what's going on? Sits 3-4 inches out

[@BlackLightStar]

What's the required time for this operation per side?

[@joepinehill]

Another good video. My 08 went through 2 sets of axles under warranty. The boots failed. I think the boot is too close to the catalytic converter and the boots get too hot. The last set was replaced at 90K and they're still fine at 172K. Maybe Subaru changed to a stronger boot. Where do you place the jack stands? I jack the Outback by the lower control arm to body bolt. I like to avoid jack stands on the jack points on the sill, I find you can deform the sheet metal. Do you replace the transmission seal when you do the axles?

[@MrSubaru1387]

+joepinehill I've found that aftermarket axle boots don't hold up near as well as the oem ones. I jack the car front and rear under the rear differential and front crossmember. I place jackstands on the factory pitch weld at the marked jack locations. You usually only get deformation of the pinch welds if you don't have the jack stands positioned incorrectly or it the car is rusted. I usually only replace axle seals if they're leaking. Rarely do I see them fail. Usually when they do, it's from being damaged by axle removal/installation.

I just replaced my 2007 Legacy front struts and watched an incomplete instruction video which didn't tell me that the upper camber bolt needed to be put back in the same way it came out. Not sure how I can fix this. What kind of problems might this cause if I didn't get the bolts back in the same way? Do I need to take it to a shop and have them check the bolts, or is there a certain way that is specified to know how they are suppose to go back in to be properly installed? Thanks much.

[@MrSubaru1387]

You'll need an alignment. The bolts dictate the front wheel's camber.

Does transmission fluid leak when removing the axel? And if it does where do i pour it back into? The transmission dipstick? Ive seen videos where they pour it through a nut with a pump..

At what stage do you recommend to replace them? Like how much oil leakage etc. And is it worth to replace parts on the Axle, or do a full replacement?

Usually cheaper and easier to replace the whole assembly. If you catch it early, say just a torn boot, you could replace the boot. If you have noise, lots of grease slung out of the joint, or dirt/contamination in the joint, I'd advise replacement.

I may be wrong, but this looks like a rear-axle. What, if any, are the differences for the front? Also, I didn't see you replace the differential seal. The service manual says to drain the differential gear oil (AT). I've got 122K on a 2007 Legacy.

[@MrSubaru1387]

Front axle. Manual transmission. Unless an axle seal is leaking, I rarely replace them.

[@iceclimber2001]

I should have figured out it was front by how you jacked it. I took out my axle and compared it to the Cardone replacement (which I verified is the correct part, according to Cardone). The Cardone is too short. Or is it? It expands to match my old one. My old one can compress to match the new one. Should I return it?

[@MrSubaru1387]

They should be the same length when resting outside of the vehicle. If that axle is too short, return it. An axle that is too short can pull out of the front differential and cause damage.

[@iceclimber2001]

I’ll be returning them. I am going to put the old one back in. I’m pretty sure that the problem is the wheel bearing. Should I clean or lube the end going back into the differential? I was going to spray with brakleen.

I am retired, my wife and I both have new cars, my sister cannot afford a pot to piss in. I actually bought her the car.. no I have to go and work in 90° temperatures getting eaten alive by mosquitoes to pop that back in.
