Need to replace my bent rear driver axle shaft in my 87 pioneer.

Could use some help here guys. No idea. I managed to jack it up and get the wheel off on my own so far.

 

what kind of axle is in it if it has c clips you will have to take off the differential cover and pull the c clips then the axles will just pull out

 

Look where the wheel studs are, you should see a hole in the pattern. Spin that till it lines up with the nuts in the back, there should be four total. It should be a 9/16th, take off all 4 nuts then pull out your shaft. Well its that easy with a dana 44. The nuts will be in a square pattern, like at the corners of the square.

 

Thanks guys, still have some questions.

Do I need to take apart this drum brake assembly in order to pull the axle shaft?

Also- Not sure which axle it actually is, I've never needed to know untill now. Any sure fire identifiers? Again, it's a 87 cherokee pioneer with the 4.0.

If it is the c-clip type, how involved is removing the diff. cover and the likes?

You shouldn't have c-clips.

 

Good article ol"blue. Nice find. Yes most 87s came with a D44 and have no C clips. So examine the plate behind the axle flange and see if you have those square headed bolts. If you do just follow the instructions given by tampviking.

 

right on ol blue, thats an awesome find! Thanks for the help again guys!

 

Glad to be of help my friend.
