I had more wrenching time yesterday, and hit the latest snag: taking out the axle shafts. The Book says to use a slide hammer or use two set screws. I don't have a slide hammer, so I tried to figure out the set screw method from that one lame illustration. It appears to me that you need to run two long threaded screws through the same holes that are currently occupied by those funky rectangular headed studs that hold the axle plate down. Is this right?
If it is, do you simply have to drive those studs out, then replace them when you're finished? If so, any issue with reusing them?
I've got an Auburn Pro diff set up with 3.80 gears all ready to go in, I just need to get the old pumpkin out of there...
