Hi,

I decided I was going to replace the front differential bushings on the Spitfire as I was having similar symptoms that my wife was having on her 250. (juddering in first and reverse went starting off). Her probelm was corrected by the differential bushings.

It turns out you to do it with the differential in the cat you must remove the input, So I decided that I should break down and have the differential rebuilt as it leaks rather badly and whines. Not sure how important the whining is as it has been doing it almost forever.

I have the differential almost removed. But I have run into a problem. I can't get the long bolt that runs through the rear mounts out. I have the nut off, but I can't get the bolt to budge. I can't figure out a way to get any leverage on it. The end of the bolt is pointed so even if I could get to the end any punch I have would slide off when I hit it with a hammer. Of course there is no straight shot at it any way.

Any suggestions on how to get that bolt out?

Thanks,
Roger Elliott
