So in other words those wheels will fit on a stock suspension? You don't have different knuckles or hubs or whatnot?Originally posted by b1gballin View PostBuck.

BEST DAY EVER!!! I got the accursed axle out of the Protege trans. with the magic axle tool, OTC #7140 it cost $38.95 on the Summit website, I tapped it in (note it will feel like it is too small to go around the diff pin, just tap it some more and it stretches around it) Then I smacked it with the back end of a splitting maul (8lb head I think) and it popped on out, also note that the slot in the tool is a little short to punch the axle out, but it is long enough to defeat the clip. just pull out once it has reached the limit for the tool.Owner of:

In progress:
BP+G25MR swap, Kia rio axles hopefully.Comment
