mvusse Posted February 27, 2011 Share Posted February 27, 2011 Stocks shafts with the 760 joints, Aussie locker and 35s. No breakage with this abuse: ClkrdnotVKQ If anyone has seen Peterson's 4 Wheel and Offroad 2009 Ultimate Adventure, the last part of that climb may look familiar.

SW86 Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 pretty good job for a first time. how fun was it getting that hub out. I'm fighting one now on my spare axle :fs1: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete M Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 I've been told that this method works ok: sounds plausible to me. use the power steering to help with the grunt work. :D though I guess it won't help as much on an axle that is separate from the truck. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SW86 Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 believe me if i could do that trick, i would :( ill get it though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mvusse Posted February 28, 2011 Share Posted February 28, 2011 I've done that trick and it works great. I've also backed removed two bolts and almost completely backout the third one, and use the same trick on the bolt head. First time I had no clue how to do it and spent 4 hours removing the unit bearing from the steering knuckle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ComancheKid45 Posted February 28, 2011 Author Share Posted February 28, 2011 I just swapped the whole assembly, hub and all......but using the power steering to pop the old assemblys free work great everytime. Mine wasnt 2 tight since i had just installed the locker a month or 2 back. :wrench: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Sam Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 I've been told that this method works ok: sounds plausible to me. use the power steering to help with the grunt work. :D though I guess it won't help as much on an axle that is separate from the truck. :( Jesus, did you dig that thing out of the bottom of the atlantic? I've done that trick and it works great. I've also backed removed two bolts and almost completely backout the third one, and use the same trick on the bolt head. First time I had no clue how to do it and spent 4 hours removing the unit bearing from the steering knuckle. I don't know what you guys are doing wrong, you undo the three bolts holding the hub in, and then you pull the hub out, generally its easier if you undo the nut first so when you pull the hub the axle will slide out at the same time.

mvusse Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 I hate you! Here in the rust belt where they use salt on the roads, shiny clean metal will look like Pete's picture after one winter. Any unit bearing that has been in the vehicle for more than a year is rust-welded in place. You remove (or break off) the three bolts, breaking a few sockets ratchets and breaker bars in the process, and then you still have to break apart the weld holding the unit bearing to the steering knuckle.

Sir Sam Posted March 1, 2011 Share Posted March 1, 2011 I think tomorrow I will take some pics of the bottom side of my 2000 XJ to make you guys cry. Here: viewtopic.php?f=3&t=28870 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
