how to remove front axle shaft?
I am getting the squeek up front and want to take a look before any damage (or more damage) is done. Could not find a write up to pull the front shaft. If someone could provide the very basic steps, I can figure the rest out.
I know that the brake assemble has to go... but do I need to pull the u-joint or will the whole shaft assembly come out?

thanks david! If there are two bearings per shaft in the front... i am confident that the squeal is coming from the outer one in the hub. What are the odds that I will need to replace the bearing? the race?

What kind of squeak is it and what does that mean? I have a very high pitched but barely audible whistle and I am wondering if its this?
What do the axle shafts have to do with it?
