how do you remove the axel after taking out an alternator
You can use a large screwdriver placed between the inner bearing race and the transmission to CAREFULLY lever the drive axel out of the transmission.
how do you remove the right rear axle on a 1998 ford expedition?
you have to remove the passenger's side front tire, rotor, caliper, and axle, trust me it is easier just to get someone to do it. Yes I agree. After you remove the drive axel, you need to unbolt the motor mount and jack up the engine to make enough room to get the alternator out. Also be careful when removing the drive axel, I broke the anti-lock brake sensor as well. Unless you have all of the prober tools in a fully stocked garage, take it to Ford.
depends on what needs to done, the transaxle is the transmission
is this rear wheel drive? RWD's don't have AXLE "joints"
Yes.
there is no drive shaft it's front wheel drive
no.
Pull off the wheel, pop the lower balljoint and pull the axel nut off and push the axel out of the hub assembly so its free and laying stick a pry bar between the axel and the transmission and it should pop right out.
drive from london to scotland that should do it
beleave it or not its cheaper to buy the axel than jusy the cvjoint, its not that hards to replace an axel, you need to remove the tire on that side, you will see a big nut in the center of the wheel that is your axel nut take the nut loose then you will need a hammer drive the axel thru until it is free, then you will see your strut theres 2bolts running thru the strut remove the 2 bolts after removeing the bolts from the stut pull down on the spendel and release the axel after the axel is free from the spendel grab the axel and pull it out of the trasmision not sometimes it can be hard but it will come so don't be worred and to replace the axel do everthing in revers.note after replaceing the axel the car has to be lined up you can call the parts store and they can tell you how tight the axel nut has to be. i hope this will help you
depends on type but generally you remove cover ,remove pin locking bolt 5/16" or 8mm ,remove spider pin then push axel inward ,remove "c" clip from axel then pull axel out this allows you to remove gear ball caps and remove gear ball, then pinon comes out through back
