Had to tighten up the locking ring in my left front hub this morning, and was reminded that I really need to change the axle seal at the diff as all the screws and bits were coated with lovely slick diff oil 
When I was rebuilding the hubs, I'd tried to get the diff centre out, but just couldn't wedge it out of the housing so I gave up because I'd had squat all time left at that point (Was just about to head up to Carnarvon). Now that I don't have that rush, I should bite the bullet and do the hard yakka.
So, anyone had experience taking the centre out of the front diff, and if it wasn't really coming out easily, what'd you do? I really didn't want to whack it with a hammer at the time, but will be willing to do it now
Cheers
