Just took off my axle nuts, but the axles won't come out of the hub.. tried slamming the end of the axle with a breaker bar with a cement block, bolth axles were stuck,

any clues ?

 

Please tell me the other ends are out of the transmission. Regardless, hose the bastards down with PB Blaster, leave it sit for a couple hours and then come back and get after it with a rubber mallet.

 

Yea they are pretty hard to get off if you still have the hub bolted in place.

 

Is there enough angle (i.e. room) for the axles to pop out? I mean, if you have the lower balljoint still in the LCA, it will be harder for them to pop out.

No, they sure aren't.

This is also true. Pop the lower balljoint and the upper balljoint (if you have to) and she should have plenty of room to evacuate the axle.

 

yea i got the axles out of the casing, the hub is back on the lca but theres plenty of room at the end, i tore the boots and bolth cv boots/ends are off the axle

 

if it's that bad....try to get a huge c clamp on it...or some type of pressor

 

yeah, pull the lower balljoint loose and tug on the tierod a bit (the steering part) this gives you some slack to work with. yeah, any good penetrant should get that thing loose from the hub.

 

pull the axle out of the hub and take the suspension fork out.
