  • what happens if i remove the axles from my tranny?

    i was told if i remove the axle from my 95 aspire the spider gears will fall into the tranny, that would make it really difficult to change the clutch.

    I believe that gears will stay in place as long as you don't move or jar the transmission but I haven't tested this theory yet. Most of us just keep an extra inner CV Cup to through into the trans for storage.

      I 've had the spider gears fall on me.Ive had really good luck about them not falling.but it sucks when they do.So a quick run down on how I now pull the transmissions .I pop the passengers side axle and leave it in the car but I leave the drivers side axle in the transmission. It will come out with the axle attached .I don't even Jack up the passenger side.
