Default Need some help taking axle out with axle saver bearing...

Stock 10bolt and cant get the axle in far enough to get the clip out. Anybody ever pulled one out that has a axle saver bearing on it?

Whats holding it up? Sometimes the ABS sensor can get in the way if it's an ASR car. Otherwise just get a big mallet and start pounding on the axle flange while someone holds a magnet on the clip. Depending on the carrier you might be able to move the spider gears around a little to, it might help.

The bearing is holding it up. Needs just a hair more to get it in. Just didnt know if anybody has changed one with this type bearing before and might have some tips....
