Need some help with replacing axles
Need some help with replacing axles,
I have a few problems,
1. what size socket do i need for the axle nut?
2. Haynes manuals suck ass and dont tell you what you need to torque bolts to or what size tools you need for the axles. Do you know where i can get an FSM online? Or maybe a write -up on how to replace axles?
Thanks,
Zach

although i did get a rebuilt axle from autozone and they rebuilt it w/ a 32 mm nut and threading....so i had to use two different sockets.
