Is there anyway to remove the front axle stubs from the transmission i have a broken punch in my axle stub from the previous owner and it would be easier to remove on a bench than under the car

Auto trans, yes

Manual, not so much.

 

The pin should be hollow. If you can use a small diameter punch to pop the other out from the far side.

I tried that i dont have a long enough small punch unfortunatly. It is a manual trans though so they arnt like newer modles where the axle stub is held in by a circlip. That stinks i eould much rather do this on a bench

Kinda shadey tree style, but i cut a long thin hex key to be just a straight punch, cut the little bend off, and it lives in my axle/wheel bearing kit

As for the stubs, i have no tips sorry

Do you have a picture of said shade tree tool im interested lol just cant picture it

Just a set of the long allen wrenches, cut the bend off, every punch i tried that was the right diameter was too short, ill see if i can dig it out for a picture,

It works with the bend even but your hammer just wants to roll off onto fingers lol, so i cut mine as it was a cheapy harbor freight.

Ah i gotcha i figured out what you ment after i thought about it ill see if thag works

5mm hex keys work best
