Re: [Chrysler300] Removing rear axles, 300H

["Michael Moore mmoore8425@xxxxxxx [Chrysler300]" <Chrysler300-noreply@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Ron,

That technique is really slick!  I had to remove the backing plate anyway so there was plenty of room for slide-hammer type action. The drum is heavy so it hits pretty hard, but easy to keep stabilized because it’s like a large wheel. Thanks for the tip!

Thanks, MIke Moore

Michael remove the axle key and then slip the dum on the axle loosely and then put the nut on and only tighten it about 3 threads and use the drum as slide hammer and pull the axle out.

Can anyone suggest what tool to best use to remove the rear axles of this car once the rear hubs are off?
The factory manual suggests Chrysler tool C-319.
I am looking at slide hammers and how best to adapt to the 5/8-18 threads of the end of the axle
I have also read of using a pair of pry bars (?)

Thanks, Mike Moore
