On my Syncro the spindle (outer axle that's held in place by the big nut)
was secured with Loctite. It had to be pressed out. I rented a "hub
puller" at my local FLAPS (Kragen) for $6 something. It was real easy with
this tool to get the spindle out. I heard reports from others where the
spindle was not secured with Loctite and come right out.
Good luck,
Peter

then remove nut at the drumb and slide out the outer cv??does the inner
slide out of front drumb easily or must it be pressed with tool??
