There is enough room to tap them out the back of the fronts. Then on the backs you just remove the parking brake drum and pop out the adjuster and take them out that way.

** This was with whatever length stud comes with both the 15 and 20mm spacers of course. So if yours are quite a bit longer than these then it may not have been possible.
yeah ARP's are 25mm longer than stock. You maybe be able to squeeze in a 20mm without pulling the hub in the rear. Nice breaker bar though, I actually had to pull out the suspension arms and axle to get my straight breaker bar to work. One thing I noticed is you NEVER want to let your caliper hang by the line. Get some bungee cables to hang them up.

Edit: Also dont forget to torque to specs. Hub bolts are 65 and axle nut is 133
DarkJak and Cbtech like this.

I used Zip ties when I did mine, and there is no way you would be able to fit anything larger than what comes with the 15mm spacer in the front, even that had to be tapped in to get it to slide into the hole.

I took the pictures before I put the bungee cord on. I forgot to include the torque specs. Thanks! That break bar is a SnapOn flex head ratchet.

Where are you referencing the axle nut spec? FSM states 74 to 77 Ft Lbs?

FSM RAX page 8 toward the bottom.

Just did this install and torques to 77 ft lbs. Would like to know where 133 is stated.

Thanks
