Default Pulling axles outta 12-bolt w/C-clip eliminators

I need to pull my axles to put longer studs in...

I've gotta Moser 12 bolt w/C-Clip eliminators... does this mean I'll be able to just pull the axle right outta the pumpkin w/out having to remove the diff cover?

Anything special involved in putting them back in?

How do the C Clip eliminators work?

Thanks

ok doing a search I think i get it now... but I want to clarify

I have to pull the brakes and **** all off, then there are 4 bolts in back I undo

Once these are all undone the axle should pull out right? (since I have C-Clip eliminators nothing in the pumpkin needs to be touched?)

if it works like a 9" then yeah..pull wheel off, pull brake caliper off, pull brake disk off, get e brake thingy off, unplug abs sensor, there will be 4 nuts in there, 9/16 wrench that hold the axles in.

that is how my 9" works, its moser. the axles get really pressed in there though, i remember what i had to go through to put them in the first time.

no problem. do me a favor and let me know if you find out if the axles for moser 12 bolt and 9" are the same in terms of which wheels studs they can use.

i'm having a problem getting the ARP ones from speed in, they seem to be too big in diameter for some reason. getting to be a pain cuz i have a few broken ones.
