Just curious if this would be helpful to anyone. I am doing the tII lsd swap, and I took some pics of everything almost step by step. I should be rebuilding it tomorrow when I get the side bearings pressed on the new lsd.

I'll have to admit also to never having opened up my diff as amazing as that may be. Since I'm likely buying an auto as a toy I'll need to swap in 4.33's so I wouldn't mind hearing issues someone runs into outside the shop manual suggestions.

Here's what you'll need along with a compressor of course.


This is the differential(what you'll be removing) as it looks from the back of the car to the front.


Side view


This is where its is removed from(near your gas tank/ exhaust).

I used the manual from this site as a reference. It may be helpful to you also.

I'd like to apologize for not having any pics of the axle removal process. It is however very straight forward, and anyone who knows lefty loosey/righty tighty should be fine.

You have to remove about six or 7 bolts to free the axle from the wheel hub and the brake caliper from the rotor. The abs sensor is another small(12mm?) bolt that must come out as well. Once everything is freed up you should be good to go on the axles.

For the axles you will probably need a larger pry bar than the one shown in the first picture. All you have to do is get the pry bar in between the differential and the green end of the axles and give it a good shove. You can look at the side view pic of the diff for reference. The gaping hole is where one end of the axle goes and the other end goes through the wheel hub and rotor.
This is what your wheelwell will look like(hopefully less rust though!) once you are up to this point. If you notice, I put all the bolts back in there location while I await the delivery of my axles and other parts. Also, in the upper left hand corner you can see a black and white striped cable. That is the abs line.


I will post more later as soon as I get a chance. Feel free to ask any questions.
