    Half shaft wont come off!!its never easy!!

    too much hassle, brake discs, calipers, swap axle, etc, etc.... the braking power on mine is enough, only has last resort I'll change for a disco axle actually, thinking about it... do I need to replace the brake lines? or can I just connect it to the brake calipers and job done? if that's the...

    Half shaft wont come off!!its never easy!!

    right, im using a blunt chisel on the bits where the bolts are as it sticks out a bit off the hub face... I'll try the sharp chisel, I think that's probably what im doing wrong... actually, thinking about it, that's how i got my mate halfshaft off when I did the wheel bearing on his..

    Half shaft wont come off!!its never easy!!

    Oil in the axle was fine, so I guess no water has been getting in... I also thought it was the diff pinion or something like that, but as checking the wheel bearings is so easy and as there was some play when I jacked the wheel up and push/pull on the the sides..I thought, well, I'll just check...

    Half shaft wont come off!!its never easy!!

    yes, there's a circlip in there, you can leave it or take it out, if you leave it then when you pull it off, the halfshaft will come out with it, if you take it off, then only that bit im trying to get, will come off, leaving the halfshaft in. but I took the circlip off. the bolts snapped...

    Suspension Swap Tips Hints

    I've done mine not long ago... - The bolts holding the spring retainers snaped, so I had to drill them out as the nut underneath were welded to the spring plate, but I think not all are like this. so if the bolt snap you can take it out easily... if they are welded you cant get a disc cutter in...
