You gotta pull out the half shafts!

Take wheels off... using axle stands and all that...

Undo 5 bolts on drive flange... pull out about 4-6 inches (watch for oil)...

Bob should be yer auntie!

**Picturing you pulling against the diff while the half shafts are in... :(biglaugh): **

Must have been some choice words on the go!

Spare diff on my back step if you need one.
