This method works really well. So many other videos are a struggle. This took less than two hours and I'm 81 years old

I always found it easier to disconnect from the lower ball joint and turn the assembly out of the way. Gives you plenty of room to install new axles

Thanks! I used this technique on my old 2002 Camry. Never did one before. Easy peezy.

So at what point did you change the strut? Because that was not the same old strut as before.

What gear should you have your car in when removing the cv axle? Is neutral okay? Asking for manual transmission.

I disconnected my abs wire, because car shakes when it is connected. Is this safe to do? 2005 Camry LE
