Default 1995 Diff Swap - Axle Flange Removal

Doing a 3.6 diff swap into my 1995, which I didn't realize has the older style diff to axle shaft flanges like the NA6 - I'm going to need to transfer these over as my 3.6 didn't come with axle shafts.

Do these just press out? I got a decent size prybar on them and couldn't make them budge. Just want to make sure before I take the air hammer to them.



Thanks as always.
-Zak

Edit: Disregard this post. Didn't realize I also need the axles out of a 96-05'

Whoah, the legends are true - A 1.8/torsen with stub axles!

Pretty sure you just pry them out, and also pretty sure they are a match for the new diff as well.

This is the exact type of sh*t that I would run into Ten bucks says I'm also about to find out I've been running an open diff for the last two years lol.

Sounds good, I'll try to pop one out and see if it fits into my new diff. For science.

Confirmed the stub axles transfer over. This is in contrast to an M.net post I read saying that they were incompatible.

Everyone please disregard me and my silly thread.
