Removal of Open Differential Parts (steps 6 to 11)
6. Remove Differential cover and drain fluid. Clean the diff cover and housing sealing surface.

 

 

7. Expose pinion shaft; remove retaining pin/roll pin. Remove pinion shaft.

Note: In differentials with very low gear ratios (numerically high), the ring gear thickness may prevent the removal of the pinion shaft. If this occurs, the differential case must be removed from the car and the ring gear must be taken off before proceeding. Please refer to your vehicle’s repair manual for instructions on how to remove the case and ring gear.

 

 

8. Remove the axle retaining bolts for the passenger side axle shaft located on the inside of the brake backing plate. Pull out passenger side axle shaft 2”-3”.
