Title: Stuck Dif Cover
Post by: timpvjr on January 04, 2016, 03:04:07 PM

Hello!
I'm trying to install a Spartan locker on my front differential.  I have removed the axles, and all the bolts, but I cant seem to get it apart. Any ideas?
Thanks!

What are you trying to remove - the "cover" or the third member - and what vehicle are we discussing?

Its an 86 Samurai.  The front of the dif that houses the pinion.

Presumably you already have the drive shaft removed, put a jack under the nose and jack it up some, it's most likely the sealant that's holding it.

That's a good idea.  Thanks!
