ok, seperated using my way as there was no way in hell i could have getten a ratchet in between. Now Ive gotten the passenger axle out it came out no prob, but now the drivers axle will not come out, theres nothing holding it in so i cant figure out why? I think i will try prying lots but ive pried before quite hard with no avail.

 

Unbolt the halfshaft (i'm assuming this is b-series), slide the axle and halfshaft out as one unit. Get a big *** hammer and have at it till your problem is solved

 

****, upon axle removal one of them popped out of its socket, but I popped it back in, is that bad?

 

is that bad?

 

If you just popped the CV joint out and were able to pop it back in, and it still moved freely and how it did prior, you're fine.
