I am Doing a swap of both axles this weekend on a 1999 Kia Sephia for a friend in my home town 2.5 hours away, as you can imagine I don’t want to take all of my tools because that would take a lot a larger size car than I own to haul them all. SO… i have changed honda axles in 20 minutes per side from jack up to removal of jack. What i am wondering is does anyone know if it is anywhere as easy to do as Honda Axles? and what tools are needed (i mean out of the ordinary, like over sized sockets, or will i need any torx bits, or star bits, or anything like that) Is there anything i will need other than the CV axles themselves? Like Seals or bearings or anything i am not thinking of. Thanks!

Step 1: Park on a slight incline
Step 2: Put in neutral, let off ebrake
Step 3: Walk away, feeling good about doing your part to clean up the streets
It’s like a Honda. 32mm shaft nut then pull
