I'm replacing a torn cv boot on the left side and the driveshaft isn't disengaging from the transmission. It isn't the bolt on type; that I'm sure of. When I've done this with a Dodge Colt, I inserted a pry between the end of the cv joint and the transmission. With a slight tap on the pry, the shaft slid out easily. On the Camry, I've been trying to pry by placing the pry in ridges on the cv housing, but the shaft isn't moving. Is this the correct procedure, or is there a 'trick' involved?
