re: axle shafts

[borrani@domain.elided]

Not true!  Mr. Neely has led a charmed life with regard 
to axle shafts!  On my '67 GTV, one of them would never 
come out cleanly.  It was like an interference fit, 
definitely needed a puller, or in one case I removed the 
axle tube with shaft and found a nearby V-shaped split 
tree and...  Hey, it was late....

"If Greg means the axle shafts, they will normally come 
out without using
special tools.  In fact, the axle itself can be pulled 
with no tools at
all.   All that is needed is to move the caliper, 
disconnect the handbrake
cable, undo the four bolts on the inboard side of the 
tube, grab the brake
rotor and pull the axle straight out of the tube."
