This vehicle does not have a rear axle. It has 2 spindle hubs that are bolted into a housing with 4 bolts from behind the brake assembly similar to the hub assembly in the front except that the mount is static and has a spindle instead of a 1/2 axle joined to the transmission. To remove it, remove wheel, remove 4 bolt and and speed sensors if equipped with ABS brakes.. You may need to disassemble the brakes to get at the nuts & bolts.

Hello I hope I can help with your turnsignals,Your replacement bulb should be number#3057 1.Raise the tailgate.2.Look on the sides where the tail-light is you should see two push in type bolts(fasteners)remove these by prying under the fastener with a large flat srewdriver,they will come out.3.Once those are removed,carefully pull out the whole tail-light lense.On the back you'll see two bulb socket's with tab's on them.Squeeze the tab's and carefully remove the socket,now remove the old bulb then carefully push in the new one.Hope this will take care of your problem be safe and happy out there.

Ok, i'm assuming your replacing them, there is an oval rubber stopper on the backside of the rotor, in the backing plate, located near the bottom. it will tighten or loosen the e-brake shoes inside the rotor, loosen them all the way off, then get a big hammer and give them a really good smack, be carefull not to damage the wheel studs, if your reusing them hit on the hat of the rotor, if replacing you can hit right on the rotor face.
Use some antiseize on the hub before installin your new rotors, and don't forget to readjust your
e-brake and reinstall the rubber plug

How hard is it to replace rear end output shaft seals (inner axel seals) 98 town and country? What fluid goes back in?

I assume you mean trans axle seals in front.
You have to remove the drive axles,best done on a lift,not in your driveway.
Trans fluid lubes the Diff,that is in trans.
ATF4 etc,whatever the fluid replaced the original spec, when it was new.

My rear axel seals are leaking and seem to be loose into the differential in our AWD town and country 2003. Will the seals be the only thing we can replace, and is it a big job? Thanks, Josh

Replacing axle seals isn't something you could do in a few hours but not impossible. The short and sweet of it is you have to get the axles out of the differential, so you can pop the old seals out and replace them, My time frame estimation would be about 5 hours for the whole job

Tune up on cown and country (chrysler)

I just changed the rear spark plugs on my 1997 Chrysler Town & Country this weekend. It took me about 7 hours to do everything. When you replace the rear spark plugs, its a good item to replace everything i have listed below. Listed below are the items i changed while i was in there:

Valve Cover Gaskets
All 6 sparks (the rear are the hardest) I used the Bosch Plat. +4
Intake manifold gasket (only cost $3-4)
Throttle body gasket.
Air filter
Spark Plug Wires

I also bought some throttle body cleaner and sprayed the throttle body to clean it out. When the throttle body is dirty your van can stall.
I took pictures of everything i took apart, which i can email you to help you out.

Thank You,
Nip
