gay title i kno but anyway.

i'm trying to take out the axles... removed the low ball joint, removed the fork, took off the 32 mm nut. I tried hammering on the axle but it wouldn't work. i tried pulling and it didn't work. I dont want 2 *** up the axle but any tips on how to get that **** out?

Luserkid

did you take it out of the tranny?

Just keep hitting it where the nut use to be.

Did you take it out of the hub yet?

rasinhell

Nah, it's not out of the tranny yet.

Sorry this is the first time i've attempted motor swap. Am i supposed to pull the axle out of the tranny first?

I remember one time pulling axles out of this one car and then the joint inside the boot got messed up or something. and eventually had to replace it so I was trying to avoid yanking too much.

Oh, but what I did do was pull on the brake assembly while the other hand hammered

If you don't pull the hub away from the axle has you hammer on the tip of it, the axle won't have anywere to go. It's best to use a plastic mallet, or a block of wood between the axle & hammer, if you don't want to damage the tip of the axle. If your turning the axle in as a core, who cares about damage.

Once it comes out, use a big flat head & pop the other end out of the tranny.

excuse me, what is a hub. sorry lol that might be the funniest question of the day.

Its where the axle goes through the center of the brake rotor. Where you pulled the axle nut off of.
