"Yeah I don’t think this is supposed to happen."
What made you decide you needed to pull it apart?
Perhaps you need to read this thread

Getting the passengers side axle in is really a pain in the A...
Done it a few times... still get a leak. Last time dropped the level of oil in diff to reduce the "seeping/leaking past the axel seal"
Going to try the seals that promise to be the bees knees next time
Cheers

It all started with one of the OEM manual hubs had let a little water in and it got a little rusty in there. Stripped it, cleaned it out, then decided to do the other side. Stuff happened in life for a bit, so I put my auto hubs back on but there was no innards to them. I chucked them on just to stop the crap from getting in. Only done maybe 100ks since and now the axle seal is shot. It wasn't real good to start with, this has just accelerated the issue. The end of the axle shaft was just "floating in the hub" with no support at the end of the axle shaft. Because the auto hub I put back on had no guts in it.

Removed the double din head unit and threw it in the bin. Apparently they don’t like fists. Lol. Piece of cheap Chinese Eonon shite!
Also found a broken exhaust bracket. Same one has busted twice before.
So now on the hunt for a new double din head unit.

It’s good that I work at a place that sells exhaust parts. Found a flange so I’ll cut this and make a decent bracket.

So the upper control arm is fubar. The middle adjuster bit just slides in and out of the end. The thread doesn’t even catch. My choices are. Weld the fecker in and replace the bushes as they are flogged our. Or get a new arm. Which might be exy. As I also need to buy a double din head unit.

Might still have some OEM arms hiding in the shed somewhere Mark mate if you’d like to hunt for them!
EDIT: Forgot your beast has a 4”+ lift.
