How is the axle shaft supposed to be removed from the knuckle? It has the seals for the vacuum assist. Are they to be destroyed and replaced? Definetly not as easy as my 97!
Get new seals, as they will get damaged. The shafts do come out with a little persuasion. I used a big screwdriver to pry my shaft out. The article is in the WIKI section, above on the top line.
