Axle shaft broke 8 3/4

Well I was thinking I would remove the adjuster nut on my spare axle shaft anyways because I'm going to put new bearings on both axle shafts anyways.
Cause the spare axle shaft I have that has the adjuster nut on it the bearing is rusted solid on it and I don't think it would be a good idea to try and use it.
And since I had bearing trouble on the drivers side axle shaft I figure I might as well replace the bearing on the passenger side axle shaft as well since I already have it pulled.
And Before pulling the passenger side axle shaft I felt some movement in the bearing that was never there before.
I think it happened because of the drivers side axle shaft breaking.
