It's really awesome having weasel56 around. It is kind of like paying a mechanic a visit without actually leaving the house. lol. Thanks man!

Glad to be of service :thumbup:

bmwlover i agree 100 % :D

Theres no way to do this for a 2001?

Short of fully removing the front driveshaft, nope. It's not recommended anyways for mechanical wear/damage reasons.

hmm bummer, thanks tho
