Hey,

What is the best way to remove the rear axles from the diff housing on a 2G? Just trying to find out before I go prying away and damage something.

Thanks,
-Jacob
 
Big flat head screw driver or a small pry bar up between the diff and the axle. Give it a quick snap out wards to pop the cir clip on the end of the axle and your good to go. Watch out for the seal on the diff you don't want to rip it or you will have to replace it to.

Don't be shy when trying to pop it out it takes a good snap to release the clip on the end of the axle.
 
I generally use a little crowbar and a hammer to pop them out a little bit, then just yank the crap out of them and they pop on out. Watch your knuckles :(
