[QUOTE="006, post: 5566823, member: 5015"] When you're at step 5, the caliper with spring are out of the way. No messing with the spring whatsoever. When you get to step 7, the caliper bracket is out and the rotor slides off. With the rotor out, you can see the studs. I do not recommend hammering them out since that will damage your bearings and locker inside your axle. This is a method that's known to work: Get a vice grip, grab a socket that is larger than the back of the stud, place the vice grip as shown with the head of the stud covered by the socket, and then screw the vice. The open socket will allow the stud to go inside it from the back while it slides out of the axle shaft.

See the socket is now at the front. [img]http://www.freepatentsonline.com/6618920-0-display.jpg[/img] [/QUOTE]
