07JKX

First post all! I recently puchased a 94 accord to supplement my 2007 JK Unlimited... mainly to keep the miles of the jeep, the wear off the 35's, a to have a daily driver.

Either way... i picked up this accord on a salvage/repaired title for 800.00 bucks. Strong motor, decent transmission, and minor front end damage.

The questions:

I searched and pulled the thread on CV installation... got it out... and was able to push it in until the c clip engaged. However, there is still a good portion that will not go in (ie: seal up with the tran seal)... I have read some posts about a rubber mallet... i tried this but was rather timid as I did not want to break anything... how much hammering are we talking about here?

Transaxle-seal replacement: How difficult?? Just pull the axle, pull the seal and install a new one?

Thanks in advance!
