    You can just give it a good pull by hand....or use a decent sized screwdriver, once you get under there its really obvious and is rarely difficult to pull out.

    You'll need a 32mm socket for the axle nut and a breaker bar large enough to break it loose, other than that the rest is really simple.

    I found out today that the S2K uses a 36mm spindle nut.

    Also good to have is a decent sized deadblow hammer when you need to get the new axle into the tranny.
