I took it my passenger axle and suddenly all the fluid starts pouring out. The car was too low and i couldnt make it in time to place a towel in it. Now its all over the floor and i was wandering if that is normal?


Another vent: my thread in hub for my brake caliper to go in is effed up and all i did was replace my pads and now its not going in right. tilted instead.

My Celica is cursed.

Actually I did mine in September. My outer cv joint boots were cracked. I cleaned and re greased all four joints replaced the boots and replaced the axle seals while I had the axles out.

It really helps to find a knowledgeable parts supplier, either that or do all the parts research yourself so any ignorant parts people can't mess up your maintenance projects. The guys at Advance Auto had the seals in stock. They were only $6.88 each (much less than my local Toyota dealership) with a year replacement warrantee. My local Toyota dealer only had "kits" that included parts I didn't need.


Best of luck,
