Hey. wow been a long time since I've been on here, finally got a chance to start working on my FD again and I need some help removing the drive shaft.

How do i rotate the drive shaft so i can get to all the bolts that hold the drive shaft to the differential?

The rear end or the car is jacked up so I thought I could just rotate the rear wheels and the shaft would rotate. Obviasly not because it didn't work.

Thanks for any help.

Is your car in gear? And is the "emergency" brake off? If your car is in neutral, and emergency brake off, then it should rotate.

If not, then there is something else wrong. Maybe the rear end is frozen/locked up. Dunno.

I am sorry to say this, but if you have to ask that question; then you should not be doing it!

I usually jack up the rear end and set the parking brake. Break the first nut/bolt loose, release the parking brake, turn one of the rear wheels so you have access to the next bolt, set parking brake, repeat.

Or, use an impact gun .
