Hi, I'm stuck on removing the hub carrier. the nuts off the upper joint, the stem snapped on the lower joint level with the collet when I tried to remove the nut. I've got pickle forks hammered in and it's not dropping, do I need to remove the collet first because it wont budge. Thanks Jim.

P.S. Disco 2 2002 TD5

no, hit the fork harder or hit the housing directly opposite the stuck taper
 
Worth trying a bit of heat. Mine came out in the end!!
