Good to be back!! - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

Navy Mechanic · 06-18-2011, 12:37 PM

I've returned from my last deployment! Retiring from active duty after 22 years. Best part is I've returned home to Houston, TX! Back with family and friends. Looking forward to conversing with truck people again. Speaking of.....

Need to replace rear axle bearings and seals. Dana 44 and all I know is GM rear ends. How do you remove axles from this rear end?

Thanks!
