removing spindle...dana 30 on an 85 cj7

Don't forget about the set of needle bearings inside the spindle. I had a fun time trying to get one of mine out, LOL!

I got one out with a cold chisel coming through from the other side and I think I scored the other ones shell with the dremil tool to split it after the bearings fell out to get it loose.

Don't have it in my Waggy either, thank heavens. But an open knuckle design is a lot easier to keep clean.

The joint inside is no fun, either - especially at something like
