I did some reading on your issue and it appears that it is common for the splines to rust up. Pushing the axle out with about 5 ton of pressure seems to work. That seems like a lot of pressure. I also read that they Loctite the splines. I'm not sure if that is standard procedure or a mechanics better Idea.

If you try to press again ( I would ) protect those threads.
