altrego Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 OK so I have read the axle replacement for ea series cars on the site. Saying that I have ran into a problem. When I went to knock the pin out of the whole, its stopped at the end and it wont pull out to save my life. I even tried drilling it. Broke two bits. I have tried twisting on the end and pulling on it but it wont pull out. Any help would be great. Thanks Tim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeneralDisorder Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 Yeah - drilling spring steel is pretty futile. At this point you probably have a real mess on your hands. You'll just have to knock it out - try to work it back and forth and get a proper pin punch - the pin is 6mm. 3/16" pin punches work ok, but a 5/32" is better and a proper 6mm is even better yet (hard to find).

altrego Posted June 21, 2008 Author Share Posted June 21, 2008 Thanks. I got it out. Just came in to order some pizza and check the site. Now to get the new one in. Man I hate this type of work. I'd rather be modding then repairing. But after this its a much needed stereo:headbang: and then a 2inch lift. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

idosubaru Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 good job. maintenance sucks, but enjoy the fact that you did it and didn't pay someone $150 to do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
