CV axle inner passenger side

Asked by Guru7CZ3D Jun 10, 2020 at 12:05 PM about the 2006 Ford Fusion

Question type: General

Last June change both complete axles no problem. Driver
side inner CV joint I thought went bad making noise.
remove complete axle except for the hub that is stuck in
the transmission. I tried everything even making a giant
slide hammer out of a barbell set a real barbell set from
gold's gym. It wasn't rigged it's built very well marks on a
slide rails and everything. I drilled a hole in the hub hook
1/4 foot piece of half inch all thread rod connected that to
3 ft chain and connected that to my six foot weight bar put
60 lb of weights on the other end. That give me three foot
of velocity built up before it yank The hub will not budge
after 10 very solid impacts on the hub it did not budge an
inch it did not budge a fraction I have a video if there was
some way to send it how do I get that hub out of the
transmission. Also there's nothing wrong with a CV joint
The hub is very loose into the side of the transmission so
is my transmission bad?

If you had them out before then it shouldn't be that difficult , I've use a muffler clamp , bend it open a little and place it behind the C.V. hub , hook the chains to the ends and bolt them on , wrap a sledge hammer in the chain loop and pull , try a different position if you have to , perhaps your method was tweeking it sideways or something .

I did have them out both of them last June both came out very easily with the all thread rod have you seen the brake rotor as a slide hammer.. I intend to beef up my on slide Hammer to increase the force of impact and what I want to know is is that going to ruin something by jerking it out because I'm fixing to put about 80 lb of weight on the slide hammer up from 60 I might even go to a hundred something's going to give somewhere but I don't want to ruin the transmission The hub weiler's around a little bit now in the transmission it did that before I tried to jerk it out is there a bearing up in there that I need to replace all so if it comes out
