Originally posted by Ace View Postwell, I did the timing belt on the BP but never the WP, so hopefully it shouldnt be too hard. But if the axles are any indication of how hard it will be then it won't be fun. to get the axles out took a torch and 20 lb sledge. bent my friends press.
You had a bad axle day for shure,The pump isnt that bad ,im sure you will
be ok.Do you have an impact gun to get the crank bolt off?Powered by ACME

I know its hard to do but try getting 2 bars on opposite sides of the inner cv
tap one down tight then the other.Ive had luck doing that as it keeps the axle more straight coming out.
Once one side is out try putting a flat chisel/punch through the diff,past the pin to knock the other axle out.Powered by ACME

Are you doing outer boots or are the outer joints wrecked?Powered by ACME

Just a thought,I have a large chisel like 2 feet long that i used before to dislodge the inner cv's.Powered by ACME

Hey, I replaced the passenger axle on my car. Wouldn't come out of the tranny. Tried sledge hammer, pry bar, and a slide hammer with a chain wrapped around the axle, nothing worked. Then I went to the drivers side, rotated that wheel a little bit, went back to the passengers side and it popped right out. Worked for me so maybe it can work for you.
