Drive shafts

[dell EP3]

are the drive shafts on a DC5 the same as an EP3's. also dose any one have any advice on how to get the drive shaft nut off as they are stupidly tight

 

[mkb90]

No idea on first question.
Getting the bolt undone theres 2 easy ways

if possible (not started the job yet) you can take your center cap off and use the cars weight to help

or get someone to hold the brake pedal firm while you undo it.

In both you want a long pole extension for max leverage and less effort needed

a bloody big bar!

Or scaffold pole. Always works with no effort.

Ep3 and dc5 are not the same.
