I agree with Tom Endy in post #11 - use a spreader and take tension off the rear spring. Having removed rear axles with and without a spreader, I always use one now. They are not expensive.

I also think Marshall is probably right in post #2 about the noise. I had the same issue after my first rear axle reassembly.

Good luck - Jim
