62 Rear End-Disassembly???????
I pulled the rear end out of my 62 Olds to clean up and have the center-bore on the axles machined down. Having a problem getting the axles out. Do I have to take the bolts off the bearings and they will slide right out? Loosened the center section already. and pulled the pinion. Any help would be appreciated.

I have not worked on a 62 rear but if it is similar to the o type rear , then yes remove the 4 bolts, you should not have to use the drum as a slide hammer, the drums should be off, then the backing plate will come off, I got a cheap slide hammer and kit at Harbor freight, but did not need it to remove the axles. I am unclear how you got the pinionout without taking out the carrier? you can not get the carrier out without removing the axles?
this is the slide puller I bought
