Rebuilding a D44

[brokefinder]

Are there any websites out there that describe the whole process? I'm at the point of trying to remove the spindle as well asll the bearings/races in the hub and don't know how to get them out.

look at a haynes manual will show you the break down of the axle. for bearing removal use a brass punch otherwise it will score the surface and render it junk.

Well I got finally got the spindles to budge after beating the shit out of it hehe. I got the axle shafts removed. Them bitches are rusted like shit! need to clean them down and paint them. Also need to clean out the axle tubes. It's full of dirt and rust. The carrier seals did hold up. I did a mass search on the internet and came up with this website:

I noticed I'm missing errrr.... lost one of those pins for the the inner hub nut. Will I need to get me a new one or can I do without one?
