Antiseize on Axle splines and nut
recently when i removed my axles they were to say the least a bitch. The passenger side came out with alittle force however the drivers side was a PITA. I actually ended up not being able to get it out and pulled the motor with it on. Then in order to get it out had to use a hammer and chisel for about 30 mins. Pry bar wasnt working. So before i put back my new axles i was thinking maybe it would be a good idea to put some antiseize on the splines that go into the diff and int shaft and also on the splines into the wheel bearing as well as the the threads of the axle nut. Is there any drawback to doing this ? I cant see why not.

I had the same problem. Tried my standard impact gun, breaker bar, torch, even a 10 foot iron pipe on the breaker bar. Ended up bending the pipe and snapping my breaker bar. Then I borrowed a Matco 700 ft/lb gun, and it broke them off in 10 seconds. It's the hammering motion that helps the most, because with the pipe, we were making more than 700 ft/lb

antisieze wont hurt but it wont help either.(on the inner splines) Mainly you want it for the outer splines and axel threads...

the splines that go into the itermediate shaft, should have oil or some grease on there, i forget, i eitehr smeared some hi temp wheel bearing grease on it, or some oil. shouldnt be a big deal because that end is sealed from the elements so it wont seize up for the most part.
