Isuzu CV's are so easy. Just messy, time consuming, and you gotta do it right.
That story was funny, but woulda made americas most funniest mechanic videos with him cursing and throwing grease and tools for days!!!
But, don't ever follow the book or manual 100% or you'll take apart way more than necessary and it will take you a whole lot longer to take apart, as well to put back together and will probably have a lot of you having it towed on its bare knuckles to the shop and paying them anyways to fix it.

Welding woulda just been cheeper and good with running Manual hubs.
If you weld the rear axle spidergears be really careful with turns and get to know your new VX.![]()
