Thread: need how to R&R axle-hub...

    Default need how to R&R axle-hub...

    i am replacing my rear left spindle, upper and lower arms. i know how to R&R everything BUT the drive axle from the spindle and diff(if theres anything that retains the axle or if it just pops back in). how??? what type of special tools will i need?

    from what i understand, you pry/pop off the axle from the diff using a pry bar and a hammer, bend the metal away from the bolt on the end of the hub, a 29mm socket unscrews it, but i still dont know how it goes in both sides nor how to remove or install the axle.

    thank you very much,
    chad

    99% of the time axles are a raging bitch to get out of the hub. You can try a dead blow, but it won't work...get MC Hammer out. When you install them coat everything in anti-seize, it makes life worth living.

    thanks guys! :)
