This is ideally done with air tools... My brother needs a front axle swapped into his 1990 200 10vtq. He can pay you in money or beer or acupuncture/health clinic.

Also I need you to unlpug or replace the injector fan temp sensor because it's killing his battery

extensive 10v 200 experience preferred because my brother is bad at explaining what is wrong with the car. I need somebody who can tweak it a bit since I'm too far a way to work on it.

It's already had extensive work - timing belt, injectors, all vacuum lines...plugs, wires. it's just peripheral stuff at this point.

If I was still in Seattle, I'd be down. Unfortunately I'm in Maryland now. I know a guy who might be able to help though- I'll give him a shout.

Takes 30 min to swap out an axle. Don't need to remove anything really but the axle. Like a 1 wrench job.

how do you get the axle out with the hub/knuckle still on?

Turn wheel full lock in the opposite direction from the axle ur doing. Slide the inner (trans side) up or down & then pull/wiggle it free from the hub/nuckle...

For the injector fan.... Can't you just unplug the ground to the sensor?

Yeah, but the wire end has to be isolated or the short causes all kinds of mayhem with the loom logic. Ask me how I know

My brother doesn't have the first idea about any of that stuff, so he cant do it.

Disconnect it and wrap it in some electrical tape. I don't think my sensor is working in general because it never turns the injector fan on even.
