Hey guys, I just attempted to install my Spoon progressive springs (directly from www.takakaira.com in Japan) and I couldn't get my tie rod off so I decided to put everything back together and wait till I can get my hands on a tie rod separator. But, like almost everyone has experienced, my axle came out of place, so it took me a little while to get it back in. However, I learned a easy way to get the axle back in to the tranny.
1) Make sure your brake rotor/axle is evenly raised up with the tranny.
2) While holding the brake rotor and giving it a little thrust, spin it slowly until you hear a clicking or ticking noise. THATS THE SWEET SPOT!!
3) Just give it a little push and twist/play around with it a little in the sweet spot and it pops right in. It saved me alot of time. Make sure you give it adequate amount of thrust.
I thought that might help some people out.
:D
