95 Grand Cherokee wheel joints?

Are you kidding me?? I have to pull the diff. cover...pull...or unscrew a pin or pull clip... blah blah blah... just to change my wheel u-joints?? Is this a correct way?

I mean... I trust him to work on ALOT of my stuff... but this has me thinking... of course...lol.

I really havent been able to find any info on changing wheel joints. I had a friend start on the job...He took wheel off... caliper... ball joint...ect. off... he pulled my front diff. cover... seen I had a pin(?) broke off & said I need to get one of those before he continues.

ughhhhh!!

I don't recall there being any c-clips in the front axle. You should be able to pull the shafts with out pulling the diff cover.

I've never seen a D-30 with C-clips in it....

But Im afraid of what 'pin' is broken... The cross pin?? All the D-30's I looked in have a bolt to retain the cross pin. If your cross pin is broken, then yes you need to replace that..
