  1. Thank you. I will try leaving the driveaxle in place and sliding the transaxle back away from it as you suggested. I don't think there is a snap ring on the passenger side driveaxle, so it should slide right out.
  2. Me again. I called my Lexus dealer and asked for some free technical advice. Apparently this is a common problem on ES's and RX's. I was told the intermediate bearing is rusted inside the bearing holder. The solution is to beat on it with a hammer until it breaks loose. If I had not been told this by a Lexus technician, I would not have believed it. Anyone else have any comments or experience with this?
  3. I need to remove the transaxle on my 1999 ES300. I started this project over the weekend and got stuck at the step where the passenger-side driveaxle is to be removed. I had no problem getting the splined end out of the hub. I removed the bearing lock bolt and the snap ring just as the book instructed. I sprayed WD-40 all around. I tapped and pulled and pushed but never got it to release. I had no problem getting the driver's side driveaxle out. Anyone know the secret?
