im almost done removing the old ones but the 2 ends connecting under the differential are a bitch to remove. there is a metal piece that hooks all 3 cables and i need to remove the 2 cables out of there? is bending the only way out?

hmm...will loosening the screw near the lever help? i dont want the cable to fall off and then have to remove everything to put it back on..

 

how did you get the two metal clips off of the rear cables that are right above the diffs input?
did u remove your driveshaft?
thanks
