Rear Axle Replacement DIY request
Like the title says.
Im looking for a DIY on how to replace the rear driver side axle.
I typed it in google but all i could find is inner cv joint replacement.
I've worked on many hondas before, but i would like to make sure on this one. Just because its a fine piece of machinery. lol.
anyways. Can you help a fellow S2000 owner out?
Thanks.

just recently did this along with replacing a wheel bearing.
if you messed with honda's as you stated its relatively the same aspect when replacing the rear. whats nice about the s2k axles is they bolt up to the rearend so you just unbolt the lower ball joint on the spindle, unbolt the abs sensor, unbolt the axle nut, and slide the spindle off the axle shaft. Unbolt the 5 or 6 14mm bolts and nuts to the rearend and slide the sucker out.
key thing to do is make sure you retorque the axle bolts to spec when putting the new one on.
