Yes, he did...perhaps Carl will jump in here...but his tool is basically a
piece of stiff wire with a loop make into the end of it and then bent over at
right angles...work it up into the axle case and get it over the broken
piece. when you pull on it, it will tighten and then you can pull the broken
piece out...unless the spline have twisted and hung up on the spider
gears...if so, you are stuck with disassembling the axle.
Good luck
