Thread: Removing Axles

Alright well past couple of days i been ripping the car apart. and the motor is coming out. Went to take out driver side axle and its being a pain. Hit it with a sledge hammer. used a puller untill it wouldnt turn anymore. I'm just outta ideas. Help me out.

btw passenger side came out without a fit.

I would pull the motor/trans/axles out at the same time from the bottom.

after you remove the axle from the knuckle, you have to take a pry bar and "snap" the axle out from the trany side. it will take a few trys but it should come out

i cant get it off the hub

umm disconnect the hub

thank you captain obvious

Did it at least budge or is it frozen/stuck on hub? Hammer against the axle nut should budge it.

so u can't remove it from the hub? you have to take the tie rod off, the end link off and the castle nut off the ball joint....if the axle is stuck use a punch and hammer on it to get it loose

oh and soak the sh it out of it w/ PB blaster

pb blaster it, then hit the end of the axle with a hammer, use a peice of wood or just make sure you dont smash the axle hard enough you screw up the threads on the side
