Apart from taking out the axles, what does "yanking the axles" entail? I might be interested in doing that.

Take out the front axles. But I would strongly recommend having some old outer ends to put back in and torque the castle nut, since they are what gives the bearing its load.

Yeah, missing info. Pull the outer cups off the axles, and put those back in to hold the front wheel bearings together.

Oh, ok, that is what I thought. Cool, I might do that after I change my disgusting rear axle goo.

yep, need an outer stub to hold the wheel on

 

only need to do it to one side...

something else that i think is worth mentioning, seeing as we're getting into it, is that if you don't lower your car or install an anti-role bar...rwd can be a little sketchy...so just keep that in mind.

 

basically what i mean is that front drive has a good bit of lateral stability, so when i change it to rwd only i risk having the rear step out unpredictably.

Having ran RWD for over a year, yes it gets squierlley sometimes. Watch out on wet tarmac, it could it ugly. But one things for sure, IT'S FUN!!!
