HELP..CLUNK NOISE, CANT FIND THE SOURCE

[wytbishop]

With the ball joint off the steering knuckle can be pulled far enough out to pull the shaft from the transmission. Getting the axle nut of the wheel end of the axle is the hard part. Do that before you unbolt anything else...or after you've got your new ball joint on.

So, unstake and remove the axle nut. A 3/4" ratchet and breaker bar are usually required.
Remove the lower ball joint
Drain the transmission
Pull the steering knuckle away from the axle
Pop the axle out of the transmission

Installation is the reverse of removal.

you're very welcome - if you ever need to find a better price - just let me know - i'm probably the most frugal shopper of parts - i can always find a better deal somewhere.
