Broken Axle shaft.

Pull both axle covers of hubs and get a broom stick and push it out from other side.
Should be straight thru

 

Curiosity's killin me thou. How the heck does one go about shearing off both axle shafts. One I can see, maybe, but both!!!!

 

Broom stick might work or you might have to beat them out with a long steel shaft. My dad tells a story about two guys at the shop he worked at had this problem on a truck. One guy was wailing on the shaft and the other was on the other side looking in the hub. One of them got knocked out. It wasn't the one wailing on the shaft. : )

 

Can't see it being binded up n there. Should be flopping around if broken off at the hub flange.

Another thing you have to watch out for is all the shards of steel from that hardened shaft breaking. It will get into your wheel bearings and wreak everything. Trust me I know first hand.

 

Last one I had to work on , I took a flat piece of steel , slide it in and tack welded it to the end of the shaft. Should work fine. Repeat on other side.

 

You should be able to use a cable grip. I never used one on an axle, but I got my well pump out with one when the pipe broke and it fell down the hole about 5 feet. They work like a Chinese finger trap. You'll have to go to an electrical supply place to get one big enough, but I don't think they cost too much.

How far in are the broken? If they're broken at the diff, I'd just pull the diff. You're going to want to take it out anyway to inspect for other damage and clean the housing good. Breaking both shafts and driving it (I assume with the power divider in) is grounds for a close inspection. You'll also want to pull the hubs and check them out too.
