you can rotate the axles and get to the 4 bolts one at a time ...there are notches in axle boots that allow access....i did my rear end at the same time as my 5 lug and coilovers so it was alot easier with everything out of the way...

The hub? You're having trouble getting the nut on the spindle loose or popping the studs out?

(Trying to get the hub w/ studs off) I think I figured it out, noob move... Didnt know you had to take the 4 bolts on the back off in order to remove it.

I already got the spindle nuts off... Is the wheel plate soposed to come off of the hub assembly? (One hub came off nice and clean after nearly breaking my hand with a pull hammer; the other side the wheel plate came completly off of the hub assembly) Think I need some new hubs..
