Re: 2002 suburban rear axle seal

Removing the small bolt, be careful they break easily, then you can remove the cross shaft pin, push the axle in and remove the c clip, try not to lose the position of the spider gears or it can be a pita to get it all back together.

the bolt can break. If it does I used a reverse drill bit. only occured once for me.

when installing the bolt clean threads and use medium lock tight. torque to the proper amount.
