How do I get the carrier out of a Dana 44? I have the bearing caps off and axles out but it won't budge.

Take a rag and put it in between the ring and pinion. Turn the pinion and the carrier will pop out.

I tried the rag trick, still not out. I can only turn the pinion a little bit.

Take some rope loop it around carrier then attach it to a comealong and attach the other end of the come along to the bumper or hitch and just crank it out tell it pops out and watch your hands both times I helped my friend do it it shot out onto the ground.
