Guide to replacing Spline Sleeve?

[ZER0]

Hello people.

Is there a guide here on the forum, or one you know of on-line? If not, Am I right to assume it'll be in the Haynes manual?

Thanks

There are a few on here, look also in the XC70 and V70 AWD forums as the process is very similar. If your hands are not good in confined spaces i would go to the extra effort of removing the subframe entirely. A couple of socket extension bars with wobble joints are very useful.

If the sleeves doesnt come out easily (often the case) the cut 2 or 3 grooves in the side with an angle grinder so you can get a bearing puller on it....

Good luck!
