Removing Rear Axel Assy.
I have been successful in using the spring spreader and removing the spring shackles. The frame is held up with jack stands. Now I am trying to roll the rear end assembly out from under the car. All the bolts have been removed from the universal joint and I have started to slide the spline out of the universal joint. The problem I am having now is that the end of the rear spring is interfering with the rear brake levers. Is it necessary to remove these levers to get the rear end assembly off the car? At this point it will be very difficult to raise the frame up higher. It is sitting on the jack stands and I don't want to mess with it.
Thanks for your help, Ed |

I removed rear backing plates on each side when I pulled the rear axle recently.
It’s a good opportunity to clean and rebuild rear brake assemblies. Good luck - Jim |
