axles

[cookiedan@domain.elided (Daniel Nees)]

While this is not exactly IH related I will eventually bing it around to
it. This weekend I spent putting a new bering and axle seal into my
buddies Bronco. It was deffinitly a learning experiance. On sataurday we
didn't quite get the bearing pressed all the way down on the axle and
when he got down to the end of the block the axle poped out of the side
gear. We had to tow it back to the house in the dark. (This is the
second time my Scout II pulled his bronco out of something.) 
So, the IH part is this. How different is a ford 9 inch rear and a Dana
44? Do the axles just pull out? or do you have to take the carrier
apart?
