Default Engine Swap on '92 Camry

I'm trying to do an engine swap on my 1992 toyota camry le. i threw a rod, so i'm replacing the whole engine/trans combo with that from a '93 camry, but i seem to have hit a speed bump in the process...



can anyone tell me how i can remove the halfshafts so that i can rip this sumbi*ch?

im guessing you are referring to the passenger axle shaft..if so the shaft is held by a large clip and a bolt..remove them and the shaft should slide out..it mit be rusted on, so you mit have to muscle it out..

I am in fact referring to the axle shaft. i understand how to remove it from the transmission. my issue was with removing it without taking my wheels off. hope that help you understand my problem.

that is a problem....but if you are replacing the motor and trany..isn't easier to remove the wheels and lower the subframe with the motor and trany with it?
