3eyedwagon Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 I'm wondering if the two studs that mount the rear differential to the moustache bar are replaceable or not.... I haven't had the cover off to inspect thoroughly, just stared at it from the outside when one stripped last week. So, before removing the differential, I'm asking here first. Are these studs removable, or do I just need a new differential cover? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Numbchux Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 they certainly are, don't even need to remove the cover. they're just threaded in. you'll probably need to get your hands on a stud extracter, although the jam nut trick might work.

mcbrat Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 jam nut trick works fine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3eyedwagon Posted June 13, 2008 Author Share Posted June 13, 2008 Yeah. It's stripped really thoroughly. This diff has been in too many cars during its lifetime. I'm thinking this will call for a stud extractor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
