Hey All,
Hope this is the right section, anyways here i go.

I have been replacing the axles and differential in my 89 to beef it up some and replace my diff. Last night we finally got close to finishing and were very anxious, we put the centerpin in and realized it was in backwards so the screw didnt match up with the pin. He hammered it in a bit to turn it around and pull it out and never less hammered it to far to the point where it slid a bit to easily out and jammed itself inbetween the differential housing and the pinion. Now she's stuck!!!

Any idea's on any type of tolls or anything to do? I have tried everythign that i could think of but nothing has helped pull the pin back towards me. I'd rather not have to cur the brand new 31 spline axles to do this over again. Thanks

Will make this an update thread for future referances sense i got no answers.


i ended up dropping the rear end and in which i am tightening down the retainer clips and putting a pry bar under center pin in order to push it back into the diff.

will update.

You know, you are very right! I do apologize i did not even think of that, was kind of stressed if you couldn't tell. i think i may have resolved it by dropping the rear. Should be good to go. Thanks
