Did you buy the Hub extractor kit ($379) from Pelican as well, or did you use something else? Thinking of pulling the trigger on the kit to ensure I can do the job easily without issue (only car and daily driver so can't afford any "snags").
Anything else you recommend getting while "in there" - I was thinking: axle nut, a new CV boot, some of the boot clamps, and maybe grease (what type)?? Not sure what parts I would need in entirety to DIY this.
Do you have a link to the axle nut on Pelican's site?

If you need help we do have our DIY here:

A new CV boot is a good idea while you're in there, especially if it's an older boot. We have a complete axle boot kit that includes grease and everything you'll need for your 986 here:
