Brake band looks like it might have been replaced not too many hours ago.
Get all of the oil and grease out of the housing you can, Easy Off oven cleaner and brake cleaner work great if you are not near a steamer.
Get the shaft out, it should have stayed with the final. Clean everything that rotates or adjusts up real good, and apply anti-seize.

good job Bob , keep it up and you will enjoy the ride after ,
you should remove everything from there and clean it up completely
it will take a bit of time but you will never have to do it again .

Chrysler Automobiles from 57 til the early 80s used torsion bars for the front suspension springs and when they needed to be removed a tool that bolted together in two halves was clamped around the bar so that all the force could be put on the tool and not mar the bar. I believe you could bolt together two pieces of angle iron or something around the shaft and then pry on the tool from two sides at once to convince it to slide out. I know what I am trying to say but may not be explaining it very well, sorry.

I did some searching and found this, the one I was thinking of had two bolts on each side.

I have only seen this one time in my entire career. Usually these axles are stuck in the clutch packs.
I used a bearing splitter clamped around the shaft just behind the splines and then attached a five pound slide hammer to the splitter. It didn't take much to jar it loose.
On the machine I was working on, I had both sides removed. Once I removed the first axle with the slide hammer, I was able to use a hammer and large drift punch to simply drive the other side out. These ring assemblies go all the way through to both sides.
When you re-install this axle you need to use "Anti Seize" on the splines to keep it from seizing. Both ends!

Up DATE what a weekend a day on sat, no lock drive shaft would not come out . got up this morning and I changed the way that I put the puller on the housing , sat broke 4 bolts that the clamp and bent the 3/4 bolts that I used to pull on the drive shaft as per pics
this morning I put the puller on a angle as per pic about 30 mins into it could not tighten it any more so I went for broke and got out a 3' pipe added that to the wrench and started to tighten each nut the 6"-3/8 steal channel bent and twisted o boy 15 mins later a loud bang and I said shit the bolts broke,well bolt did not brake drive shaft broke free from the rust had to keep moving the steel channel pulling it out another 1/2 hour . to think all they needed to do is put some anti-seize on it and it would have been so easy!!!! can't wait to order all the parts now and get this thing back running.

it was not easy. stopped by my friends shop today to show him the puller that he built with me , he could not believe how the 3/8 channel bent and twisted. spoke with Lavoy today and ordered the parts, will be posting more pics in a few weeks I hope as to be putting this back together.
