I have tried everything I can think of to get this thing out, even tying a ratchet strap around the inside and pulling it with a car (it broke the strap). Get a thicker strap, heat? I'm lost.

there is definitely something not good or right here.
I'd open the differential and take a look.

Actually I got two people both with pry bars and hammers and we eventually got it. The lock ring got jammed.

Lca in full droop, sway bar not disconnected.
The new one went in easily.
