i'm having trouble finding the torque numbers for the various rear axle related bolts. Could you provide them? I'm having the click/tick noise when starting from a stop and sometimes when changing gears and would like to try tightening them first before I drop $$ on a new axle.

If you're referring to the 4 rear hub/bearing bolts, I think that's 50 ft-lbs. |

So any aftermarket axles out there that are better?
My car is mostly stock and I'd rather not put another set of stock axles on if the cv is just gonna blow out again in another 20k

Here is how I've been doing it: 1) I have a bearing splitter that I got from Harbor Freight (to pull the bearing off of the pinion gear). I put that around the end of the axle that is solid (black). Do not put it around the dust cover (silver). 2) I then use a pry bar between the diff and the bearing splitter and wiggle it furiously until it unseats the axle from the diff. Then it just slides off. To put it back into the diff, I just hit the edge of that black piece on the axle until it seats back into the diff. You should replace the circlips if you follow the factory service manual recommendation (I'm betting the new axles come with them). |

I've broken two axles, stock and Driveshaft Shop. It boils down to the car being lowered mostly. Whenever you lower the car the axle geometry gets completely messed up. It puts too great of an angle on the inner CV joint which causes the cradle holding all the ball bearings to break. Best way to remedy this if you want to be low is to buy the PBM Subframe and Diff Risers. I went thru hell and back though to use these with my DSS axles.
When the DSS axles "broke" they froze/seized at the outer joint. Not sure the reasoning behind this but thats what happened. I have a full write up on my adventures into solving the infamous clicking noise here.

I was removing the diff, so I unbolted the diff and was able to detach the axles to remove it. But if you are removing the axle for replacement, I imagine you'd leave the diff bolted up and remove the hub components to get the axle out.

1. Jack up car and support with jack stands. 2. Remove the wheel on the side you will be replacing the axle on. Pull the ebrake and remove the axle nut, you need a 32mm socket. 3. Jack up the lower control arm in till your shocks start compressing and the whole car raises just slightly. This puts the axle in a angle and makes it easier to remove. 4. I use a harbor freight 24in tire iron and rubber mallet to pull the axle from the differential, super easy you just need one good hit. (Axle won't come off completely you only need to pull it 2 or 3 inches) 5. Now you need to support the differential with a jack and unbolt the 5 bolts that holds it in place, 2 on the side and 3 on the rear. Impact gun makes the job easy. 6. Start lowering the differential in till you have enough angle for the axle to pop off. Make sure diffrential doesn't tilt to the side or it will leak oil. 7. To remove the other side of the axle you just give it a small tap where you remove the 32mm nut and pull it out of the hub assembly. To reinstall new axle just follow instructions in reverse order. |
