just like to confirm the push in pull out method worked for me today :) thanks for the tip guys. although i couldnt really get the drive shafts level when i did it due to the brake disks being in the way.still worked though.

ive got a pair of them but cant see any circlips.will i be able to see them if i take out the diff cover on the bottom?

Get a pair of sirclip plyers (sp)

They're fiddly & messy to get out but as said normally a good push then hard pull can do the trick.

Push hard, then pull fast.

Thats how I did my mates xe ones.

did the crow bars work for you? im just in the middle of replacing my clutch and i cant get my drive shafts out either.ive got my friend on his way round with a couple of crow bars so will it be safe to really force them out? they move back in towards towards gearbox and have a couple of mm play in them, but when you pull them out they just stop as if there is some kind of clip or something holding them in.

ok will try.

you got any more cheap rims fs btw? lol

crow bar try wedging prying it out

btw its N/S

driveshaft snapped at inner cv joint on corsa 1.4 8v

got a new driveshaft trying to get the bit out thats atached to the gearbox, am told it just slots out. im turning it twisting it hitting it with a hammer trying to pry it off with a screw driver just doing everything i can for the last 2 hours it wont come out...

any suggestions???
