Camry V6 LHS Driveaxle Removal - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

1995 Camry with 1MZ-FE engine and automatic transmission. Trying to remove LHS (USA Driverside) driveaxle. Driveaxle is removed and free from wheel hub and I am now trying to pull driveaxle from differential. (I have removed the six 'allen key' bolts from the inner CV joint as per Haynes manual).
Problem - cannot pull the driveaxle from the differential. Have tried prying the inner CV tulip with prybar to no avail. Anyone had similar problem and found the trick to remove the driveaxle?
Thx

It should come right off after you remove the 6 allen head bolts from the axle shaft assembly. On the drivers side the axle bolts up to the inner shaft, all you have to do is unbolt it and the shaft should seperate fairly easily, just pull it off the inner shaft. There is no need to remove the inner shaft with the axle still attached.
