Alright I am gonna be yanking the bad tranny i got out and the place i got it from is gonna fix it...so I will have a car with no tranny....and since the axles are attatched to the tranny do I have to basically put my car up on cynder blocks while my tranny is being fixed? I just dont have the money for a shop to do it so I was just gonna try it on my own...dont it on rwd cars but never a fwd...how will this work with the front wheels?

 

you can take both axles out but leave it up on jack stands

 

Or you can tie then up so they don't drop to the ground. Axels don't support the weight of the car at all.

 

so I could just leave the two from tires on the ground and just not roll it?

 

no you can roll it around it just wont have any way to transfer power from engine to wheels (obviously).

 

The big nut on the end of the axle holds the wheel bearing together. So if you leave that in & hang the axle with coathangers, OK.

If you take the axles OUT, you might want to get big nuts bolts & washers to hold the bearings together before you set the car back down on it's wheels. They don't have to be anything profound, because you aren't really going to be driving anywhere.

 

Put a jack up to the engine to support it and have the jack stands under the tabs on the side of the car.
