If you look in photo 2, you will see a vertical pin that goes straight up and down.Immediately on the sides of the pin is a small splined section. This spline is the inside edge of the axle.
If you look closely behind the spline, you will see the edge of the snap ring.
Removing this snap ring will allow the axle to slide out.
Then the seal in the side of the case is pried out to show the bearing that is pressed into the aluminum case.


I think I see that.....When you pointed out how to fix this last night...I think that was the reason I slept well last night.....

Sunday am I woke up around 4:45 and couldn't go back to sleep stressing.....

And this is not my Daily, it is just a fun car for me.....but I still stress what is out of control.

CC, Take a large washer and and place it on a rod of some sort. Now, take your finger and spin that washer on the rod....that is the sound that it makes. Sometimes it spins smooth but then other times it wobbles and makes that noise.....keep spinning the washer and you'll have the same random clinks and clanks that I get in 1st and 3rd.



This is not worth any stress. As I said, a bearing and seal are likely all you have hurt.
Worst case, the axle is damaged from the bearing, and possibly spider gears in the carrier.
Used dana 36 parts are a dime a dozen.
