Im taking the axle and swingarm off my 400ex. Are there any tricks you guys know to make this easier? I heard to use WD 40 on the axle nuts to get them off easier? Im not sure. Also if you have any info on this axle and swingarm removal would be appreciated!

Thanks, Josh

the axle lock nut is reverse thread....loosen it, take off the c-clip and it (lock nut) should slide right off...then you can take the rest of the stuff off not problem....make sure you grease the splines when you put it back together...
