Help..water in rear diff

Ok so I was a bit eager to see how deep the water got a couple weeks ago..she was snorkeled but didn’t have the time to run my vent lines..well I guess I’m paying for it cause it is 23 degrees here and everything is frozen including my rear end lol jtd locked up and won’t role took my drum plate off my rear break and nothing but ice..so I melted the ice and still won’t role..I’m 99.9% sure there is water frozen in my rear diff..especially since it was just fine the other day when it was 45….suggestions? It is a 16 420 rancher
