whats the easiest way to get axles out? because the one of the right side of the car is giving me a hard time. its stuck in the tranny and wont come out. we got it out of the hub. but we cant pull it out of the tranny.

Long heavy duty screw driver may help too, pry it between the transmission and the axle...

That's cool you got it out, I usually use this extra B series intake manifold rear support bracket thing. I'm not positive if the D's have em. But they got this perfect sized u shape bolt down part where they bolt onto the block that fits perfectly around the CV axel to pry it evenly on both sides of the axel. But that's jus what I use.
