Re: astro van awd axle flange driver side
I think you'll have to remove the shock and allow the knuckle to dopr farther out of the way to make room to slide the half axle out. The hub is pressed (pulled) onto the half shaft and will likely require a puller to push the axle shaft out of the hub.
The half shaft retaining nut requires a minimum of 160 ft/lb to pull the axle into the hub fully, so eat your Wheaties. 200 ft/lb is maximum, so don't overdo it. Good luck, stay warm, and Go, Bucky!
