REal quick....How can I turn the driveshaft

[Korben]

while the front two tires are on ramps and the rear is on jackstands? Tried putting it in gear/neutral and turning the rear tires but it doesn't turn the driveshaft..need help ASAP please...

If you turn the back tires, it should turn the driveshaft.

[Quadcammer]

uh, put it in neutral and use a wrench to use leverage on a pinion bolt.

Is the emergency brake on?

[Korben]

thanks.

Negative. Is the pinion bolt the bolt that holds the driveshaft to the rear axle?

[Dope]

Car in neutral, ebrake off, tires in air, turn driveshaft by hand.

Worst case, if you're a girly man, stick some sort of screwdriver/prybar/whatever in the yoke of either end of the driveshaft and turn it that way.

Dope
