We tugged, pulled, and beat on this thing for several hours. I can't believe how stuck it was. It never came out, even after finally getting it in a 12 ton press. Even tried heat and WD-40. No cigar. Regardless to say, this thing isn't coming apart. Will take some pics just for curiousity sake. Already bought the new CV, will have to buy a used splined hub tomorrow. This one is just too rusted/frozen.

Beating it out of the unit bearing? What model truck?
