In this video I will show you how to fabricate a simple puller to remove your axle shafts with ease. I will show it in use and then continue on with the front and rear end rebuild.

Thanks for taking the time to make this video. I will have to make a puller like that, as I have tapered axles on my Studebaker also.

I really enjoy learning from your videos thank you. I am starting an fc 150 rebuild so am tooling up. I ordered the connecting coupler and one foot of threaded rod from mcmaster and carr. I was looking thru my metal pile to weld up the puller. I came across some three inch pipe to use for the legs. I drilled a 1.125 hole in some 3/8 x 4 x 4 " that will lay across one end of the pipe with the other end of the pipe up against the axle housing. No need to weld anything.

I get a lot of great ideas for tools I can make to help with these steps. I have always been a little intimidated to get into some of these repairs cause I'm never sure if I have the right equipment to get me through the whole job. Thanks for walking us through this, I have the confidence to take this on, and thanks for showing the tools you've made. Big help.

Great narration during the entire video all good info, your welding is spot on, I found some U shaped tools among my fathers tools and thought how funny when he has so much moneys into Snap-On tools and thought they were junk and tossed them into the #1 iron pile I guess Ill have to go and retrieve them, Anyway I am working on the 1946 CJ 2A that has set in the yard from 1968 and three generations of kids grow up driving it around the world and I am thinking how funny it would be to see it actually ruining someday ....

Just curious but was wondering how do you inspect the axle shafts (straightness, weakness, splines etc). At what point would you replace vs. refurbish? I find that I am now constantly checking for your next video. 👍 Thanks
@metalshaperJeep7 жыл бұрын
I check axles for straightness/run out, buy mounting them between centers on the lathe. If it looks like it is running out, I mount a dial indicator and check how bad it is. I always check keyway to make sure the key fits with no slop. Splines are checked visually. If I suspect the axles were abused, I often use a dye penetrating fluid to check for fine cracks. Keep watching many more videos to come.

Made by OTC tool company. Original use is to remove axle bearings, but it makes a great seal puller too. Anybody that sells OTC tools should have it.

Sometimes they can get stuck in there. Just give it a good shock with a hammer and it should work fine.

My axle broke off leaving me about 1 inch of axle to hang on too to pull it out by. I havn't figured out how to pull on it yet.
@metalshaperJeep5 жыл бұрын
if you axle is broken but still sticking out, just weld a large nut or washer to it and use a slide hammer or something like that to pull it out.
@TradIrishHarper6 жыл бұрын
How do you get the bearing off the axle? I am redoing my Willy’s M38 and cannot figure out how to remove them.
@metalshaperJeep6 жыл бұрын
you will need a press to remove and re install bearings. if you don't have a press just take it to a local machine shop or large auto parts store and they should be able to press them off for you.
