Bought a 9" from spraker racing i am needing some install help. I am trying to figure out how to get the axles out of this damn thing. I do not know much about the ford rear end so I am not sure how a lot of this goes. This was built to fit the firebird and camaro. so it is a direct bolt up. I am just trying to get my brakes on so the axles have to come out

All 9" fords have pressed on axle bearings, you have to take the four bolts out of the ends that hold the axles bearings in and yank the axle out. Sometimes they are in there pretty good. Take your brake rotor, flip it over and thread a few lug nuts on a little and use the rotor like a slide hammer to pull it out - or if you access to a slide hammer/axle puller use that.
Usually you have to slide your LS1 backing plate/caliper mount on the axle before you press the bearings on so I'm not sure exactly what you have there..
