My dad finally broke an inner axle in his ball and claw front end. Now the inner axle is stuck inside the housing. We have pulled the knuckle off and the ball and claw off the passenger side to try to pull it out with no luck. We also pulled the drivers side out to see if we could beat it through the other side. It doesn't budge either way. I believe it's broke right at the splines in the diff but just enough where we cannot pull the third member out.
Anyone have any good ideas on getting it out? If not the next step may be cutting the front of the housing off to see inside and make it so he has a removable front cover like some others have done. He was hoping to drive it up to Tellico next weekend because its the opening weekend after the winter closer.
