I am trying to remove the rear axle out of my 350x and removed all brake accessories, brake rotor, sprocket,hubs, and now I do not know what to do next to get this thing out.

I dont think the sprocket side will come off cause it is pressed on.

Can someone please help?

Thanks!!

If you are looking at the swing arm from the back, the axle slides out the left side. So you do not need to take the sprocket hub off.
Have you removed the two locking nuts on the right side?

I just pulled mine off for the first time so let me see if I get this right. On the right side you have two locking nuts, both with left hand threads. Once you loosen the inside nut, the outside nut actually loosens towards the swing arm. Then you will be able to see a retaining ring. Once you remove the retaining ring you can start to slide it all off then the axle will pull out of the left side. Check this diagram.

items 15 and 16 are the locking nuts.

hope this helps!!!!
