2004 Pontiac GTO Halfshaft Upgrade - Bulletproof Your Goat
With a tall screw jack, support the bottom of the rear-axle center section. Place a block of wood between the center section and the jack to prevent marring the epoxy finish. Using an Allen-head socket and a ratchet, unbolt all of the halfshaft-to-inner-and-outer axle bolts. Take care to not lose the metal retainer plate that keeps the bolts paired up. Set them in a safe place to be used later. While these bolts are torque-to-yield, there are no reports of failure when reusing them. They're quite expensive, so if you're comfortable reusing them, go for it; otherwise order some from your local GM dealer. View Related Article
