they are pressed on - you'll have to take it to a machine shop to get the new ones pressed onto the shafts.

Good writeup:

I want to remove my coolant reservoir to clean it, can i just remove the bolts and take it out? Or is there more to it than that?

Question. What is the line coming off the rear axle on the drivers side? Is this a vacuum line? Where does it connect to in the engine compartment? Thanks!

Another question. I have had a high idle issue ever since I replaced the tps and iacv. I have since replaced the tps and the iacv tests good. I have no manifold leaks and all the vacuum lines look good. At the time of the first replacements I also cleaned the throttle body. I am all out of ideas. Would trying a different TB be the next step? I'm running about 2000rpms when it idles high. About 85% of the time. Please help. Thanks

That sounds like the breather tube for the diff it doesn't go anywhere jjust up. As for the high idle that really sounds like a vac leak to me recheck your lines you can give the connection points a shot of carb cleaner you may see it get sucked in and there should be a change in your RPM's of course do this while its running at the high idle.

Qucik question. I'm changing my plugs and wires and hve some high performance wires to put in. The longest of the wires has 2 ends that are the kind that are at the distributed end. If I use one of my old wires for this one will it affect anything?
