I'm not sure if any of you have ever pulled a front shaft on the H3 but it isn't the simplest job to do.

Even easier if you've blown a CV.

You basically have to pull the front knuckles off to get the shaft out.

Can't you just disconnect the tie rod and swing the knuckle around. That is what you do on a H2, but I haven't looked at a H3 close enough to see if it would be the same.
FWIW The H2 axle nut is only torqued to 155 lb/ft and requires a 35mm socket. </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
No you can't. On the H2 you have the luxury of a halfshaft that bolts to the diff. H3 the shaft goes into the diff housing. Not enough room to turn knuckle and pull shaft.
