Need Help on my Differential Replacement!
#1
![Default](https://landroverforums.com/forum/images/icons/icon1.gif)
The collar on my passenger side axle cracked, tore the axle seal, all the lube leaked out of the differential, and my '03 D2 started making some terrible noise. I've got new passenger axle, collar, seal and a refurbished differential, and a new front drive shaft. Questions:
1. I've got the 10 bolts out of the differential, but it seems stuck. Do I need to have both axles out in order to remove it, or is it hung up elsewhere?
2. I'm having issues getting the front four bolts off the drive shaft. The four in the rear came out with some struggle, and showed plenty of blue thread lock. Should I just keep heating the front four up an trying to get them loose, or is there a better way? Very little room up there for tools.
Thanks.
