You need to remove wheel, remove bolts holding the hub on, remove center bolt on axle to hub (In the middle of the rotor), I think you just pull it out now. The passanger side has another thing holding it midway I think, I could be thinking of my other car. When you reasemble, make sure that nut in the middle of the rotor is very tite. Toyota recomends you use this special stuff they sell for tranny fuild. It's a little better in my opinion, but you can use synro-mesh. Synro-mesh is a good bit cheaper and you can pick it up from your local parts store. Good luck.
EDIT: For future referance, naming your topic something that at least hints to what your wanting help with gets more attention. It also helps others find the info when searching. "need help," is pretty vage. This post has been edited by Bigmeanbulldog55: Jan 22, 2006 - 12:24 PM -------------------- Live Free, Be Happy

I changed my axles, but it was about 1 1/2 ago. And I've swapped out my transmision for a new one, and I know when I looked up what the car took, it was some kind of special fluid. Changing the axles isn't rocket science, you just take off things to get to it, yank it out, lub a new one and put it in there. They come with dirrections. The first time I changed one out, I did it on my own without really knowing what I was doing. Worked out just fine. -------------------- Live Free, Be Happy
