I got the axle and axle housing out. Now
I need to figure out how to get the snap ring off.
I'm watching the videos online and reading tutorials but I cannot quite see what they are doing.
Also I inspected the parts.
1. That little washer looks pretty sad but not sure if that's normal. It's scared up.
2. There was some metal on the screws holding the two housing halves together. I'm a bit worried they stripped the threads or it's something worse.
3. There's a plate between housing and gear at end of axle. It seems to slid out of place. Not sure if that's normal.
4. The end of the part coming out of the diff / mating to the axle is warn more on the bottom.
It won't let me post more photos. I'll make a second post here.
