Ok,
So this is where I'm at.
I can still spin the hub, feels fine. I tried pulling the axle off the transmission and it didn't budge either LOL.... Didn't really try to hard as I thought it would be better to pull the axle off the hub first.
There is enough play to remove the axle from the tranny and pull it to the side! I'm a little worried that I might damage something inside the shaft though!
Tonight I'm going to use the puller to remove shaft from hub and go from there! If I can't, then I'll wait until Stephen Richardon comes give me a hand early September.
Thanks
