9" Ford rear Help stuck Axle!
I have a nice 9" ford rear out of a '58 Ford. One axle came out nicely, but the other is stuck big time. My slide hammer wouldnt budge it. I put the old drum back on reversed and beat the living #%$& out of it with a 5lb hammer, and still nothing. Then I attached 2 chains to the axle via the lugs, and hooked it to the bumper of my truck. I tied the other end of the housing to a large oak tree. And jerked the #%$& out of it, and STILL nothing. Yes all 4 flange bolts are off. Believe me after pulling it with my truck, I double checked to make sure. I also have been spraying WD-40 on what I can see of the bearing for 3 days, with no luck.
Any ideas? Who could I take this thing to? Maching shop? or maybe an 18 wheeler aligment shop? I am out of ideas.
Sorry for your loss of friend Mike McGee, Shine. Great trans men are few and far between, it seems. Sadly, Mike Frade was only 66 and had been talking about retirement for ten years that I know...
