Way to encourage him man!! j/k
Sometimes they can be a REAL bitch to get out. And other times they just fall out. Usually the first though.
Just soak the hell out of the bearing/axle joint and let it soak for a while. Then if they cause any trouble you can use a puller or a bigger hammer to get them out.
Are these going on the 510 your building?

Yes, the front and rear subframes, and therefore all of the suspension, engine, transmission, PPF, etc will be from a FD RX-7. So basically I'll have a lightweight, boxy looking 3rd gen.

At this point Murphy's law comes into play BIG time.
And that is as soon as you get all the parts back together and start to drive it,....The inner CV joint will almost certainly fail on you.( Due to it being origanal and old) Then you'll be kicking yourself for not getting the whole axle. The last time I got axles there were around 350 each( my price) if I remember correctly. Call Ray Crowe @ Malloy and talk with him about this. He is good about giving you what you want and need.

I guess 1point3 isn't one of the people converting to a Cobra IRS, so you were right. After all the hassle of assembly, new boot kits, and everything else, complete new axles start to look like a pretty good bargain.

I may switch over at a later time when your cradle is available, but for now the turbo II diff has been proven to be capable of 9's without hassle.
Does anyone have a part number for the outer axle assembly that fits in the hub?

Put in a request and any available parts from participateing yards will be logged and you will be sent an e-mail saying they can fill your request.
I used them for getting the stock turn signals ( prior to knowing about the forum) There was actually a good but somewhat pricey yard near Jim. I think it may have been in Oregon but it was NW area. They seemed to have alot of FD parts. They were a Toyota and Mazda recycler.
93BlackFD just got a rear sub-frame from a yard I believe. You may try to PM him and ask where he got it.
Hope this may help you out.
