Default Can I move the car a few feet? Inner CV Joint failure
So my lower ball joint popped out and the inner cv joint separated. I had the car towed but I didn't have the forethought to tell the tower to put it in my garage. It across the street of my house. Can I pop the axle back into the cv joint and lower ball joint back in and drive it a few feet to get it inside my garage? I can't push it because my my driveway has pretty good incline.
A couple of rollers came off the spider as well. Am I going to ruin the transmission?

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

You'll only ruin the axle that's already ruined so NBD, but sticking it back together probably won't be of much use if it's gonna pop apart again as soon as you try to drive it.
Probably should plan to round up some push help and push it.
