[quote:Anonymous Coward 73106219:MV80MDcxMzAzXzczNzg1MjUwXzE1RUVEMjQ5] Update, So I finally got the damn thing off. I was able to get the 3 bolts hold the bearing bracket and it popped right out. Now I have to wait for the new bracket because the old one is pretty much a part of the axle now. It is so rusted that it has fused to the bearing itself. Crazy. [/quote]
Original Message
So I've got a 2009 toyota sienna minivan. I am trying to replace the passenger side cv axle but it will not come out of the transmission.
I have tried pry bars (bent them), air hammer (hasn't even moved a bit), slide hammer (not even a budge), I even tried renting a set of tie rod pry bars/ball joint separators and hammered away on them. Nothing.

The part of the axle left to be removed is the right side of the picture.
No matter what i have tried nothing is working and I am losing my mind with it. It will not budge. There is a bracket attached to the engine that the bearing fits into. I cannot remove this bracket due to the location of the 3 bolts holding it in.
Please, if anyone can help. I am losing my mind with this thing.
