If the wheels were on the floor or the handbrake was on and the halfshaft was moving then its buggered.
The rubber is probably split and the outer CV's has run dry.
Just replace the whole shaft for a good second hand one, only difference to look out for is
the reluctor ring if you have anti lock brakes.
Don't forget the thread lock on the six hex bolts to the diff flange.

There is NO nucleus.
