So I'm about to start the tear down of the rear end to swap out the axle that has a blown CV joint.
But the issue I will have is how do I keep the axle from turning while I try to loosen the Axle bolt's out of the Transmission? Any Tips? I really want to make it to the ECC so I have to get this swap done as quickly as possible. Thanks in Advance. |

Torque spec is only 31 lbs. Make sure you clean all the grime out of the bolt head first so you don't strip them. Probably 12 point (triple square) but may be allen hex. Shouldn't be too hard to hold with a strap wrench or even a large pipe wrench.
