I am powerless here just heat it better is all I can say. It came out easy after my dad blew his roofing torch at it for 30 seconds or so.. After the **** gets scorching red you have to keep the torch on there some more. Trust me heat takes care of this you're just not applying enough of it, you have to use a real torch not some little toy thing.

Finally got it out. Took an amazing amount of time and effort, plus making an attachment for the slide hammer. And also several heating plus cooling cycles as well.

I dont know about over engineered because i actually broke the backside of the puller. Yea i tig welded it. I am welder/fabricator lol. It still took way to much effort for a darn cv axle imo. And thanks.

I called the dealership and it is consider bearing carrier and it is a non serviceable part. The only way I could get one is if I ordered the entire oil pan. He also informed me that they only made this design for 2 years give or take lol.
