can a couple of you guys come to the shop tomorrow morning to help me remove the rear axle? Ecology is coming by between 11 and 3pm to take it. Im going to go there around 7-8 to get started. They told me its not a problem to get it without the rear axle.

I can probably help but how is not going to be a pain in the ass for them to take it without a rear axle?

winch. Prob leave it in the dirt so it doesn't drag on the asphalt but move it up to the front spot, or i can rig up somthing using my old explorer axle shafts so it'll still roll.....hrm maybe ill do that haha. I can sell the rear axle for at least 200 so im pulling it off.

You don't think it'd be a pain in the ass trying to maneuver an SUV with just two wheels?

sounds like a bit of a pain
however those flatbed guys are pretty good at dragging busted ass cars up onto the tilted bed

I just picture digging trenches in the yard and lots of screeching metal not to mention an unstable load ... but whatever if that thing is gone at the end of the day I will be ecstatic :lol:
