Was hoping for info on what it takes remove the axle tube from the Columbia rear end
I have removed the bolts from the tube section and the bolts that bolt directly to center section (sorry if my terminology is bad)
The outer tube will not come off because of the shifting arm sticking out the window.
The inner part of the Columbia that bolts to the center section has come loose and I have gotten around 2” from the center section.
I hate to beat on it to get it to move more because I have never taken one of these apart.
Honestly I have never taken a factory banjo rear apart either. My winters QC is the closest I have come to this type of rearend.
I am trying to do a inspection before selling it, it should be a factory 37 Lincoln zephyr, I pulled from my zephyr but it does have juice brakes on it but still the wide 5 drums, so they may have just updated the backing plates.

Thanks
Dave
