the axle nut might give you the most trouble. it's a pain to remove without airtools but it's doable. i've done it many times with just a breaker bar. make sure to soak it with PBblaster or something similar to loosen it.

lol. i make my own breaker bars.
using a 1/2" drive socket, 1/2" drive ratchet, then i grind down the ends of the handle so i can slip on the handle for my floor jack. then its about 4 feet long now. then, just step on it lol. works like a charm if your heavy like me.
just make sure you dont try to turn it the wrong way then step on it that way. ive done that before

yesterday while takin out the driver side axle i been TRYINNGGG to take out the rotor.. 2 of the star shape looking thing came out easily. but the other nooooo. i slap a 11mm in it lock. then it strip!. but my 11MM bend open. cheap brand i guess. i got new tools tho so i'ma give it a try.
if the 11mm look like it gon strip then i'ma take it back out. cuz the 10mm doesnt fix for shit like ya'll say.
