how to you pull out the axles since they are interference pressed in to the housing? it is a self contained bearing. it might be easier if my backing plate wasnt in the way btw its on the driver side and i accidentally hammered the longer pass. axle into the d. side and its about 3/4 of the way in and not wanting to come out

Mine has the self contained bearing. The backing plate is on there and sits between the bearing and it bolts to the axle housing which holds the axle in place.

You did some editing there, I don't know what to tell you about installing the wrong one on the wrong side.

they make a tool that you can connect to the lug studs and ****** them out but obviously you don't have one just like me, lol. what I did was remove a few of the backing plate bolts to create a hole, then I slid a thin 6 inch punch through the hole from the backside and placed it on the axle flange where the lug studs are seated. I then just beat on the punch slowly until the axle came loose. its a pita but just have patience with it and it will come loose.GL
