This method of seized axle removal has been practiced and refined by myself to a point where I don't have to be intimidated by this problem any more. I've never had an axle I couldn't separate with the Posi Lock 110, but how much damage the axle takes in the process is the refinement. I've learned that you're just not going to avoid distortion of the hub on a Mitsubishi seized axle.
This 2005 Mitsubishi Endeavor was in the shop a week prior to filming this and I had found that the rear axles were seized and would not come out without damaging them, so the repair was rescheduled so we could get new axles on hand in the likely case that they get mangled too much to fix within reason.
In this case the axles are saved because of both the careful setup of the Posi Lock 110 (3 jaw, 20 ton) puller and the patience of keeping the exposed part of the axle cool. Experience on previous jobs has taught me that if the axle is not cooled as the hub is heated or the puller is not set up perfectly straight, the axle can bend where the splines transition to the threaded end. It can be difficult to set the puller up straight around the lug stud shoulders.
I figured this would be a good job to film as illustration of what we are running into with Mitsu and Hyundai/Kia here in the New England rust belt. They are the worst, but this happens with many other brands as well.
