i was changing my driver side axle last night (like a million times now), i got every thing apart and went to pry it out of the tranny, and the bitch is stuck in there. the only thing that i could think of is that the lock ring was too big and it won't come out?? somebody has had to have had this problem before (i hope), what the ---- should i do??

Ah yes... many times... not mainly on hondas but on kia's and nissans (cars I work on all the time) When you have a lift and a 4 ft pry par, then tend to just come right out. but If you cant get a bar in their and just snap that ****** out. Get a chizzle and pound between the case and the axle, it will eventually come out. But its better to pop them out with a larger pry bar. Need to get a good angle on it, and dont be using some dookie *** flat headed screw driver

Good luck

i know this might be a bit off the topic, but would a busted axle cause a wobble/vibration?? i've had many busted axles and never experienced this before. the car and steering whell wobble, not shake, but actually feels like a weird wobble?? the lower the speed, the slower the wobble, it goes away at about 60mph

warped rim maybe?

how could i tell? every now and then it doesn't do it WTF??

i just change my rotors like 1 month ago, the ******* better not be warped. it's going to be kind of hard to get a pry bar under there without a lift?

take a 2 ton floor jack and get that bitch as high as you can get it off the ground...front end only though....and make sure u put some bricks behind ur back wheels...

the wobble might be due to a worn out tie rod.... thats whats up with mine... just had it aligned... and they realized that it is worn out... thats why the right front wheel wobbles. gotta get that fixed... just take it into a shop for an oil change or something and have them look at it and pretend you are interested in getting it repaired from them. and they are more than willing to point out ---- that needs to be replaced. thats what my cheap *** does
