I am preparing to remove the rear axles from a 2002 V70 X/C for C/V boot replacement. I tried (really hard) a few years ago when the car was not mine and the axles did not want to come out, so I left well enough alone. Now I own the car (they did not pay their mechanic) and both front CV boots needed replacement, so I am going to do the rear C/V bots, before they fail at a bad time. Does any one have any tricks for getting the rear axles out, short of BRUTE FORCE. BRUTE FORCE works, but it breaks things. I am thinking of fabricating a puller if possible. Tried putting on bar bell type weights, then the axle bolt and slamming it hard; nothing moved.. Manic Mike
