Dang, I meant axles, not driveshaft... Is there a way to edit a post title?
So..... Latest of many issues, my rear differential is toast. Planning on a junkyard swap, but trying to remove the rear driveshafts, is not working.
After 3 days (well, 2 hours a day for 3 days) I had my brother help and we got one out, but the other is not coming out...
So for those that have done it, what is the trick to getting them out if you DON'T have access to a lift. I just have it up on jackstands, so limited room under there.
I have the spare out for a little extra room. I watched a video that showed someone prying on it and hitting it with a hammer, but he had it on a lift so had good leverage. That's how we got the first one out, but it's not working for the second one.
