Does the drivers side axle come out the same as the passengers side? What I mean is just a little bit of prying.

 

Yep, usually get behind It with a pry bar and pop it with a hammer

 

I can't seem to find a good place to pry.the other side had a nice spot to place the bar. I'm probably just being to gentle. I just don't want break something.

 

Just behind the boot is usually a notch in the metal housing. Place the end of a pry bar or large screw driver in the notch and then hit the end of the prybar with a hammer.

 

There's a notch but not enough to get a good bite on it. I will look again. There is a thick steel ring that bolts to the trans. It has six bolts I removed. It comes apart about a 1/2" and seems to move with the axle. but doesn't come all the way off. I have to push the axle in to get it back to the trans. I will put some bolts back in and look for the notch. Thanks be back in a minute.

 

Got it. Jacked the car up some more and sharpend my bar. Still, surprised it came out. The notch could have been deeper. I'd like to take a grinder to it for the next guy. Thanks Tizzy1. Any idea where the crank position sensor is.

 

transmission bell housing, back side. Might be able to see It with the axle shaft out.

 

OK, thanks. Going to look now.
