It slid right out when I got bolt removed. Got the other gear out. Now we know where all those broken teeth came from.

Axles look good. Drums look new just dirty and dead bugs. Brakes look like they were done recently.

Now how to get the carriage and ring and pinion out. Shop manual covers removal of the axles but not the carrier.
