Thanks for the reply.
Didn't need to pull the output shaft (what you're probably thinking) didn't need to touch the diff.
If I could upload the pics it's easier to understand.
I'll try to explain with phone and fat fingers.
This can be done with tranny still in car. Pull everything from driver side, pull dogbones and lower cradle.
Pulled sidecover, vb, everything down to chain, pulled chain, then started pulling everything oit, inspecting and setting in order each piece. Output shaft doesn't need to be pulled. I pulled everything down to forward band, which was broke,
The manual calls this piece the final drive sun gear shaft, it shouldn't even come out without the diff off as the manual shows and clip that holds it in.
I had an idiot in my garage that not only screwed with the parts and got them out of order forcing me to waste hours and money on the tech manual to figure it out (I do everything but trannys hate them, first time diving into it and will be the last, I see why labor is expensive)
While I wasn't paying attention somehow he forced it out, I've got it back in, it's in there where it moves out about a quarter inch then stops unless you use force to pull.
Like I said it's better with pictures to show how far it's in and what it looks Like, but I can't upload them, to big.
Manual shows this shaft being worked on and coming out the diff side so I'm assuming I can reassemble everything and worry about the clip later? The shaft is not flush with the tube inside there
Having this shaft pulled has got me in a very bad mood, people know not to touch my stuff or what I'm working on and this is why.
