So i got my drivers side half shaft out. Looks like the inner bearing pack exploded.

Couple ?'s: i guess the half shaft is not serviceable? Theres a snap ring holding the bearing pack (or whatever u call it) and i slid it off the splined shaft. So why cant you slide a new one on?

Also does the case attached to the axle housing come off. And how?

I need to know what to order.

The rest of the CV that is still on the center section should slide off. I'd replace the entire assembly, and that my actually be the only way to order it.

Have someone pull on the shaft at the same time hit it with a dead blow hammer that helps the inner locking ring compress
