My oil return was submerged in oil in the lower part of the pan. So this weekend I removed the right side axel and relocated the return to the top of the pan above the oil level. I also switched from a 1/4npt fitting and a 3/8in hose to a more free flowing 3/8npt fitting and a 1/2in hose. The thing is huge. For sure if I continue to have a cold start smoke problem, I know it will not be the return. I have finished the work and just need to fill with fluids tomarrow after my silicone drys on my oil pan. I will also take a pic. tomarrow.
how hard is it to remove the axel?

Not to hard. You must remove right front wheel. Then remove the bolt on the spindle that clamps the lower ball joint to the spindle. Then you must remove the nut that holds the axel in the center of the front hub. I believe its 30mm and must be a twelve point socket. Then slide the axel out of the front hub and slide the ball joint out of the spindle. Then you can pull the rotor hub and caliper can be pulled out of the way and tied up. Then using a pry bar you can pop the axel out of the transmission. Drain transmission fluid out first or it will be messy. Muake sure if the axel needs to be hammered out of the front hub the threads are not damaged. Air tools and a compressor make this job much easier.
