The patient; 1993 Caravan with the 2.5 and 3 spd auto transaxle.

The left side axle gave up last week. Has the tell-tale clicking sound whenever making a turn.

Thanks to a member who posted a discount code for Advanced Auto, I can get both axles for less than $100 (new axles, not rebuilts), so, I figured I'd replace both. The van has almost 110K on it.

I've never replaced an axle before on a FWD. Heck, this is the first FWD I've owned.

I've read the manual, I've watched several videos on youtube, it seems pretty straight forward.

Any sage words of advice from those that have does this before? Short cuts, things to look out for, etc, etc?

Thanks!
