    Loved the vídeo and how "steady" it was. The rusty was really bad, but the dedication was, to the top. Great DIY vídeo. Thanks

    If you remove both track control arms you can put a lever into the end of the open axel tube and pull it slightly to one side - then the drive shaft comes out without all the pushing and pulling.

      Thank you for this feedback, I'm going to change one of the drive shafts so will try it your way.

    I joined today because of all your Smart Car content. Everybody makes these jobs sound impossible, im glad to finally see someone doing the job, as many of us would be had to! Thanks for the informative, and keep your great attitude, as i would have to pace a fee steps between jams 😅.

    Just put the rings into the oven ( on hot ) while you paint the shafts, then quickly drop them on, much easier. Also spray all the fixings with penetrating oil the day before, it will be easier and less damaging when you undo them.

      Good advice, I'll try this.

    I had the same issue, cost £452 for a garage to change the shaft and ring. If only the ring was made from stainless steel 🤦‍♂

      Agreed, I recently bought a drive shaft for £48 from Smarttune Ltd and it came with a reluctor ring fitted. £452 saved must feel good!

    Wer der Typ etwas für Unterbodenschutz gemacht hätte sähe der Smart nicht so verrottet aus..
