Re: 29 Pickup Rear Axle Issue
I broke an axle on my 29 pickup many years ago. I remember it as being fairly simple to replace. I don't remember the details. You will have to take the rear end apart. The biggest issue is that it is heavy, too heavy for me to lift at my age. You have your son to help. Consult the red book, Model A Ford Mechanic's Handbook, Volume I. You can just set it up on saw horses to start.
The vendors have new axles which I would recommend rather than an old one, unless the old one is in excellent condition. Shipping cost to Hawaii will be expensive. See https://www.snydersantiqueauto.com/p...8126&cat=41627
