2015 Outlander L rear axle replacement

I just finished replacing the right rear axle, owned it one month and the axle snapped, sadly so far no help from Can-Am.

The service manual said to remove the swing arm but I found that it can be done without removing it, saving a lot of time.

Here is the video I made.

Removing an inner CV joint can be difficult but here is how I did it today and it was easy.

I used a slide hammer with an angled end, I took up the extra space with a 1/2" extension, put pressure on the extension by pulling the slide hammer in the direction of the extension and use the slide hammer to remove the joint.
