Having a hell of a time removing the rear end need some advice!

Im swaping over to T2 and trying to remove the rear end ive stummbled onto a problem. Other than every nut/bolt being frozen and now soaking in blaster, I cant find the best way to reach the 3 nuts on the top by the driveshaft. What is the eaziest way to remove them? Thanks, CHris

Are you talking about the front differential mount which connects it to the subframe?

I just dropped the diff and subframe on mine today and its not much more work to drop the whole assembly rather than just the diff.

You'll atleast need to unbolt the subframe and lower it down in the front to get to the diff mount.
