AXLE PROBLEM

[mike86]

hey all i know this has been brought up before, but i am really baffled!
i am trying to slide my axles out to chuck in my new locker right, i got the l/h side alxe with the force of my pinky finger.
the right hand side is a different story.
i have tried:
Inverted hub
Wheel bolted on
a heavy duty slide hammer
knocking the inverted hub with a hammer
pulling as hard as possible
AND EVEN
tying a rope to the axle then trying to tow it out with another car!!!!
The farking thing wont budge
can somebody please direct me into a possible solution (besides buying a whole new diff <_< )
would unbolting the diff center and trying to wobble it around and loosen it off help?
could the splines be twisted, therefore not budging?

The car is a ke70. So its a borgwarner, if that helps?

THANKS

If it's a borgwarner, then leave the axles in, open up the inspection plate on the back and sink a few rods in.

What were you going to do? Remove the axles, pull the center out and then weld it?

You'd have to have all the crownwheel / pinion lash settings re-done = 2/3 the cost of a wrecker special diff.

If you break an axle then you buy a new diff, win.

<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE (KE86_man @ Nov 4 2007, 11:16 PM) </div>you COULD do it like that i suppose,

however it is extra effort

and the risk of welding over where the axles go in (mate of mine did it the day before drift practice, that was a fun day)

Either or, your options are there for you.
