Sorry to be so late, did you get this done ?

 

The axle is flexable and should not be a problem. It has some movement in/out just push it out/back into the hub.

 

 

See pictures in post #28.

Yeah I was able to get it done, I think I just have to be more careful with the axle when I'm moving the wheel to access the bolts on the backside of the knuckle. Was able to get the new axle nut on so all is good.

Also snapped off the bottom caliper bracket bolt, was seized within the knuckle opposed to the bracket. Penetrating oil and patience is key on this project.

Job was going smoothly until the last hub assembly bolt. Couldn't access it easily because the axle got cockeyed. How can I move the axle freely? And how can I prevent it from coming out misaligned? All I need to do now is knock off the assembly but I want to get the axle straightened up first. Any help would be great, thanks!

For anyone without air tools trying this, using a floor jack as a lever under the bottom of the breaker bar is a big help.

Procom rep!

Saw a pretty lady bringing her black debadged LGT into the Cherry Hill loc today.

Good to hear, you got a great deal on it. I was a drive away from buying it, but the owner was being so sketchy. He didn't mention anything to me until I asked for the VIN the day I was going to look at it. I just figured there might be other things he was hiding if he didn't mention this until he had to.

Yes, congrats on the car. It looked super clean and there's a good chance you got a steal on it. Just be aware of what you'll run into if you decide to sell it.

The one in Toms River?

Yup, that was the one.
