ok so I got all the suspension links unbolted, now I'm trying to remove the axle. I have a puller installed to try and pop the axle out. I tightened it basically all the way (not using excessive force, but pretty tight) and the axle didn't pop out. am I missing anything here? pics attached:
Silly question: did you unbolt the axle nut? also make sure the speed sensor is removed (if it has one).. and if that is all good then start using excessive force.

Thanks for the reply. The axle nut was unbolted yes. I ended up tightening it was far as I could, then took the ratchet off and hit the end with a hammer a couple times. somehow this actually helped, and I was able to continue tightening easier after that. kept repeating this process until the axle finally came out! I must say this was by far the hardest axle I've ever done!
I completely forgot to unbolt the speed sensor yes, hopefully that didn't screw anything up. I didn't think it stuck out to a point it would be in the way, but I'll find out soon lol
