A friend and I are working on replacing the Passenger and Driver side Driveaxles and have run into a problem with the passenger side. We cant get the passenger side out at all. Any help appreciated. Pics of the problem below.

 

youll juss have to pull it out hard. SOmetimes you can spray some WD-40 there to loosen it up. or spin it to loosen it up. knock it out with center punch and hammer or pry it. whatever works.

 

The only way to get this is with a hammer and chisel or screwdriver. Just keep spraying it with a rust penetrant and whack the hell out of it with a hammer. Be patient with it, it takes time.

 

Looks like that third bolt is still on back there bud.....not sure but thats what i see.

 

Yea make sure you take off all 3 bolts that are 12 mm. Its probbly seized, so this is what I did. put 3 bolts in and back them out a tiny bit. Then- use a hammer being careful not to *****-head the bolt, hit the bolts so that it will push the axle out of the bracket. There is no snap ring, so it will side right out. After that antiseize the bracket.

 

That stupid axles was a b!tch to replace I thought it was going to take no more than 90 minutes but took me about 4 hours..... Anyway, I wedged a big flat head between the 2 pieces and separated it little by little.....and chipped a piece of the bracket bearing in the process Now, no more noises from that axle
