Loosen the front wheel lug nuts and raise the front of the vehicle using jack stands. Detach the vent tube from the axle and seal it. Remove the drive axles and disconnect the driveshaft from the differential pinion flange. Remove the skid plate and suspension cross member. Disconnect the wiring from the stabilizer bar disconnect device. Support the axle assembly with a floor jack under the differential. Remove any remaining interfering wiring harness clips. Remove the axle assembly pinion mounting bolts and lower the jack to roll the axle assembly from under the vehicle. Installation is the reverse of removal. For solid axle, loosen the front wheel lug nuts and raise the vehicle using jack stands. Remove the front wheels and brake calipers and discs. Disconnect the vent hose and brake hose bracket. Mark the driveshaft and disconnect it from the differential pinion flange. Disconnect the stabilizer bar links and shock absorbers from the axle brackets. Disconnect the tie-rod and drag link from the steering knuckle. Support the axle assembly with two floor jacks. Disconnect the track bar and vibration damper from the axle bracket. Mark the alignment cams and remove the control arms from the axle bracket. Lower the jacks and remove the axle from under the vehicle. Installation is the reverse of removal. Tighten all bolts to the torque.

Start by loosening the wheel lug nuts, raising the vehicle, and supporting it securely on jack stands. Then, remove the wheel.

Full-floating axles can be identified by the large hub projecting from the center of the wheel.

There are two different rear axle assemblies.

For coil spring models, the wiring from the rear wheel speed sensors should be disconnected and the sensors should be unbolted and removed.

After removing the caliper and brake disc, you should disconnect the ABS sensor and secure the sensor and wire harness aside.

Raise the rear of the vehicle and support it with jack stands placed under the frame rails.

Removing the shock absorber lower mounting bolt and the upper control arm ball joint nut allows you to separate the control arm from the steering knuckle.

The axleshaft is typically removed when the bearing is worn or the seal is leaking.

Check for differential lubricant leaking out from below the axleshaft, as this indicates a leaking seal.

After removing the wheel, the brake caliper should be removed and supported out of the way with wire. Then, remove the brake disc.

These assemblies support the vehicle's sprung weight components through leaf springs attached between the axle housings and the vehicle's frame rails.

After loosening the lug nuts, you should raise and securely support the vehicle with jack stands.

Pull out the axleshaft and clean the flange mating surface.

Installation is the reverse of removal. Tighten all bolts to the torque.

Full-floating axles can be identified by the large hub projecting from the center of the wheel.

Removing the shock absorber lower mounting bolt and the upper control arm ball joint nut allows you to separate the control arm from the steering knuckle.

Installation is the reverse of removal.

The axleshaft should be carefully pulled from the axle housing.

For leaf spring models, the ABS sensor(s) should be disconnected.

After installing the axleshaft, the hub bearing, hub bearing-to-steering knuckle bolts should be installed and tightened to the torque.

Check for differential lubricant leaking out from below the axleshaft, as this indicates a leaking seal.

Detach the vent tube from the axle and seal it.

The brake lines should be disconnected from the clips and brackets on the axle housing.
