front axle disasembly
hey guys, im doing my ball joints and i cant even get past the rotor
what size is the axle nut?
and whats the best way to get the both the rotor and hub off?
ive already sprayed it for the last 3 days with kroil.
i used a big puller, and already destroyed the rotor with a sledge hammer trying to get it off, it still wont budge(decided i was gunna replace rotors and pads while im in there)
any tips you guys have will help asap thanks

the rotor comes off the back of the axle.. u need to take the 4 bolts out of the back that holds the wheel bearing on then take 1 of the bolts to a hardware place and get 1 thats a bit longer, screw the longer 1 in and hit the bolt with a sledge hammer and the whole assembly (rotor, wheel bearing, and axle shaft) will come out. i take the spindle nut off after its all apart but u dnt have 2 if all ur doin is ball joints
