How to remove axle extension shaft???? WTF!??(3sfe)

[stricular]

So we are trying to remove the goddamned forsaken axle extensions shaft from the trans in order to r&r the clutch. This is on my brother's 88 4cyl 5 spd.

My brother is what you would call a rage-a-holic. He can't do anything involving work without a bunch of crying and yelling. He is a little bitch. Main problem is, he won't listen or take a break when he gets frustrated. So he ususally ends up making things worse(like breaking the cages inside the frame that hold the nuts for the front to back crossmember, even when I am standing there saying "turn the bolts in and out until the threads get cleaned via the friction created by turning them in and out within the load that the fucking cage can handle, you fucking dimwit" ). Please help me throw his BS back in his face by telling me how to remove that fucking shaft. After I make him wait a few hours with his face all red. Stupid turd.

Thanks!



P.S. Normally I would just look on the manuals site, but some assbag fucked that all up. PLease if you know who did this, e-mail their name,address or IP to me, so I can track them down and beat their ass. Thanks!

whats wrong with the manuals site? http://camrymanuals.com/index.php?m=...=105&topicid=0

Sounds like you need to lay off the roids, you got some anger...

Sorry about the rant, but my brother was pissing me off today. He's all "can you give me a hand," and then freaks out when shit doesnt go perfect, and so he starts whining about all the problems in his life, instead of focusing on the task at hand. Anyway,

Fortunately, cooler heads prevailed, and we got the trans out. The extension shaft(or center shaft) is supposed to pull right out, as far as I can tell. I had to hit it with a brass drift and a hammer like 75 times, then it finally popped loose. That fucker.

The pressure plate side of his old clutch was down to the metal, while the flywheel side still had some meat on it. There was also a good deal of black stuff, closest comparison I can make is the hair in like the witch's/pirate wigs you see in the store around halloween. It was everywhere between the engine/trans. It looks like the friction material separated from the disc.

Edit: Here is a pic for shits and giggles:



We got a fenco clutch to put in, came with Japan made throwout bearing, and the bulk is made in Korea. Good purchase, bad? Opinions please.

And about the manuals site, the page is up, but when you try to download a file:

http://camrymanuals.com/index.php?=&cid=&topicid=&action=vdl&man_id=manual s/90/Manual_Transaxle.pdf&~=00X187A#199


That just sent me over the edge. I look on that site easily once a week(but not excessively), and the one day I actually need to consult it I can't. I guess it's my fault for taking it for granted, feeling entitled to it, and not printing it out. Oh well, it got done. I guess it's better for me to type out my anger than beat somebody's ass. Except for the douche(s) who fucked up the manuals site, we should all get to kick them in the balls!

Sorry again for the frustrated, noobish post, but you know how your family can piss you off sometimes.


Mods, feel free to nuke this worthless post at your discretion.

The axle often rusts to the bearing holder there behind the block. It took me a few hours one time to remove the carrier from an axle one time... good job on getting it out.
