i was curious if the dust shield everyone is talking about is the brake dust shield? or is there another shield closer to the intermediate shaft??

Damn, Phil is the man!

 

I bought custom axles so I did not have to remove them..
But on the last swap I did,I had to..
Use a hammer and flat chisel and some safety googles..

ps&gt;Be careful ..
When I popped it out,It bounced off my forehead..

Sup Vap..

 

Where did you get your axles and how much for them??

I bought them on Ebay for $199.99 +$35.00 shipping [Jan. 2003]

sellers name was driveshaft1

What I would gave to see that. Raxle also sells custom axles. I took my dust shields off but my axles would still not spin freely, but I came up with a good idea that has worked very well.

 

What did you do so that they would spin freely. I'm trying to take the most convient way out. I checked out raxle.com. Are there any other ones out there.

Well I still suggest you try to remove the dust shield to see if it helps. But basically picture a big heavy duty washer ( and I'm talking big enough to slip over the end of an axle ) . Used it like that, this keeps the axle from pulling into the hub so much and causing it to get stuck.
