How to pull axles? and e-brake question I need to pull my axles to install my ARP wheel studs. Can someone please tell me how to do this? Also, I do not have the e-brake system anymore, can I remove all the stuff behind the axle end? Thanks a lot for any help!
Re: How to pull axles? and e-brake question Pulling the axles is very easy.
1) Remove wheels, calipers, and rotors
2) Remove rear end cover
3) Remove pin/block in the middle of the differential, one bolt hold it in place
4) Unbolt TCS sensors on the backing plates
5) Push axles in and remove C-clips
6) Pull axles out
7) Put everything back together in reverse order
Not sure about the e-brake thing. You can pull the shoes, and probably the expander thing, but I'm not sure if it is part of the backing plate.

Re: How to pull axles? and e-brake question Well, I went to unbolt them, and the bolt you are talking about rounded off instead of turning. I only have 7500 miles on my car, and I was using the right size socket. What is that about? How can I remove them now?
