Spanner on the diff end. Socket and ext bar on the bearing and it slips right out.

hi LOsh171 yeah i could do that if i could get anything over the nut or bolt(spanner or socket) the part were the trunnion is attached is in the way?

The nut sits on a lip so it doesn't turn. Only attempt to undo the bolts at the diff end

Yup. Spanner on the bolt but I still put a spanner on the nut too just to hold it.
