Removal time

ohioperformance

Well that was actually one of the more straightforward projects Ive had.

Remove gas tank straps and the V-brace to gain easy access to the inner CV boot.

Remove the inner CV boot from the Diff:



I then went to the back and braced the transmission: Remove the bracket - watch your transmission mount insert crumble to the floor. Sweet.


Remove the 3 bolts on the guibo.


Now I went to the front and removed the nuts and then the long studs holding the front diff. It needs to be braced to do this as it will now be ready to lowered after the next step.


Remove the center bracket but first remove the 15mm bolt on top and set free the coolant lines.

Now with the help with a friend lower the whole unit out (sans axles - they are still held in by the axel nut and pressure)



Next use a punch to smack out the axles. A couple good whacks did the job.




Ended up being about 78lbs.



Time to clean up the front (Those are the studs that held up the diff)





To do list:

Clean up the back. Put in transmission mount insert. Torque axle nuts to 340ft. lbs. And figure out how to protect this in the meantime.
