4x4 Cossie front diff removal? Engine out of car!
Is there a knack to removing front diffs from a 4x4 cossie engine or is it just a matter of struggle until it pops out

It was a right bitch...
The driveshaft that goes through the sump needs to come out, and it might help to loosen the engine mounts and push the engine over to the other side.
I guess it's catching on the rack right? It might be easier to take that out as well.
