Need some help with car repair.. Final Update pg.7
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.

I cannot see the picture due to the fact I do not use Javascript.

However if you apply heat to the surrounding metal, the splines should slide right out.

Starting at the 10:00 mark is kind of what I'm dealing with except mine will not budge at all and I just don't know what to do anymore.

Is there a lock ring or woodruff key somewhere in there that's preventing removal?

Happened on my Nissan Pickup, Galvanic Corrosion welded the drain plug to the oil pan.

SnapOn wrenches just bent trying to remove it.

At 9:20 is what the bracket looks like. I have removed the retaining clip already.

No. I have removed the clip. It is the last half of the axle that won't come out. I am in a tight space but I can hammer away yet that does not seem to be working. The video is exactly what mine looks like except mine will not come out. I have air hammered so much that the bearings are showing where they fit into the bracket thing. I also think it might be stuck in the bracket thing. The clip I removed had to be pryed out because it was so rusted.

There are car forums for most make and models. People on the forums are very knowledgeable and eager to help, at least from my experience.

Tow strap tied around the axle and attached to a truck hitch. Ease tight then gun it. Should come out nicely then.

I usually have luck with a pickle fork on an air hammer. When that fails, well-placed heat usually does the trick.

He can save the money. Neighbors truck and a tow strap should do the trick. I forgot to mention op, anchor the Van down with some chains or another strap on the opposing side.

heat expands metal so the idea is to heat the outer metal mass

have you sprayed anything like PB B'laster, let it soak a while?

No way dude. Not unless it's already fucked. Dude, just anchor the van on the opposing side. If there is a tree to tie it to great. Trust me I have a cooler full of beers says it will work.

You must live somewhere with lots of snow.
The bearing gets so rusty do to salt it basically becomes part of the bracket.
I live in the N.E.and have worked on cars all of my adult life and that job you are doing SUCKS.
You can try and letting penetrating oil soak for a day or so but it probably won't help.
The only thing I have found to work is heat and lots of it.
Oxyacetylene is the answer just don't over do it I actually melted a bracket on one.
Good luck!!

I have a 4runner, what I did on my axle was take a length of chain, loop one end around the axle and tie the other end to a sledge hammer. Yanked it right out.

It's probably seized. Spray a can of penetrating oil into the area and wait a few hours. Then tap around the area so it'll loosen.

I might actually love you. I swear to everything I am at a point now where my only option is to reassemble the right side and have it towed to a shop, so I may as well try this. Thank you so much. I will let you know tomorrow (when I try this) if it worked.
