So I bought some Tom woods driveshafts. I go to to take the rear driveshaft off and it would not come off at the diff!!! And before you ask yes I took all the bolts out. And as far as I could tell there was no real good place to pry it off. Anyone have a tricks or tips to help?

 

I tried that but maybe I'll get a bigger hammer next time.

 

X2 on the pb blaster!

 

If ya look on the pumpkin side of the flange there are 2 holes 180* appart (in addition to the 8 threaded holes). Use a hammer and flat end punch thru those 2 holes and tap a bit thru 1 then rotate the shaft and tap thru the other. You'll slowly but surely walk it out.

 

A dead blow and a rubber mallet knocked mine loose real easy. Just gotta make sure you put enough M.A.N. behind it and be aware of when it comes loose.

 

Thanks for the help. I will be giving it another go this weekend.

 

Hit it with some WD40 and use a mallet, it will break loose after the WD penetrates the dirt and rust.
