I know I have seen this before but can't seem to locate it today.



I am trying to take an expression that has some rules in it and replace one of that parts that contain a rule using ReplaceAll



For a simple example consider:



testExpression = "stuff", Axes -> False, True
(* "stuff", Axes -> False, True *)


and I want to replace the



Axes -> False, True


with



Axes -> False


I have tried



testExpression /. 
Hold[Axes -> False, True] -> Hold[Axes -> False]
(* "stuff", Axes -> False, True *)


as well as



testExpression /. 
Hold[Rule[Axes , False, True]] -> Hold[Rule[Axes , False]]
(* "stuff", Axes -> False, True *)


I promise to add this to my set of notes if someone could kindly enlighten me.
