sounds lucky to me on my 64 3/4 ton i had to remove hub and drum and remove the screws and drive, and i mean drive them apart. the full floating axles are so easy to remove i wouldn't worry about them. i had to take my hubs off anyway to change bearings. the joy of a 3/4 ton is most parts are about twice as high, but you can carry about twice as much so i guess it works out.
