4 Wheel Drive/SUVs: Front axle removal Chevy blazer 1997, chevy blazer, local auto


Question
On the front driver side what holds the axle in place at the gear box? Is there a bolt or a clip that holds it in there? I can't seem to find what is holding it in place and I need to remove it.

Answer
Wil,

The axle may be held in place at the front differential by a c-clip.  This depends on the type of differential you have.

I would purchase a repair manual for the Blazer at a local auto parts store.  They cost around $20 and are needed for most home repair or trouble shooting.  This manual will give you step by step instructions along with photos of the removal process for your axle.
