remember to take your old one and new one to a local shop to have the bearing bracket pressed off and back on to the new one if your new axel dosnt come with one.

i wouldnt try to test that.. .cause if it breaks on you while driving, youll be stuck having to tow the car cause it wont even limp home if one breaks (i had that happen, lucky i could push the car back into the garage when it happend ... lol )

the hardest part about changing axels is getting a good rebuild from the parts store, and getting that bracket pressed on/off.
