I don't understand why you won't remove your axels... it's easy to do!

I just took mune into NAPA and had all new studs installed along with new bearings. My total time for removal and install was about the same as removing the rear tires...


So what is so hard about wacking the old studs out drawing new ones in. c
Can have a set in and be done and driving before you get an axle out.



For me? Nothing is hard about stud removal. For my Charger, the studs were already broken off, and I needed bearings anyway, so I just had my NAPA do the deed (since I don't have the proper tools to replace the bearings).

This stuff doesn't scare me at all. But, I also know when to have shop with the right equipment do something that I'd otherwise have to "rig", know what I mean?


Fine if you need bearings anyway but in the case of if you don't need the bearings why go to the needless time consuming job of pulling an axle. When all you need is a BFH and an over size nut or stake of oversize washers for a shim to draw against and a flat sided nut to draw the stud in and an ratchet and socket or better yet an impact wrench to pull the stud/s in. Personally I don't like to do an hour's worth of work for a 15 minute job.
