6. Remove the two 3x15mm button-head screws from the
differential cover. Do not remove the two screws that secure the
shock tower.
7. Use a 1.5mm hex wrench to remove the two screw pins that hold
the driveshaft yokes to the differential output shafts. Remove
the differential cover and slide the differential out of the front of
the case.
8. To reinstall the differential, reverse the steps.
Rear differential:
1. Remove the two 3x20mm button-head screws that secure the
top bumper mount to the differential case.
2. Turn the chassis over and remove the two 3x12mm countersunk
crews that hold the bumper/skid plate to the bulkhead. The two
front screws do not need to be removed.
3. Remove the 3x20mm button-head screw from the bumper
mount and tie bar.

7. Remove the differential cover and slide the differential out of the
front of the case.
8. To reinstall the differential, reverse the steps.
Refilling the differential:
1. Remove the four 2.5x10mm screws from the differential case and
carefully pull the differential case halves apart. Work over a towel
to collect any fluid that drips from the differential.
2. Drain the fluid from the differential. You may wish to remove the
spider gears from the differential to make this easier.
3. Place the spider gears back into the differential case (if you
removed them). Fill the differential case with fluid until the spider
gears are submerged half way.
4. Rejoin the differential case halves, using care to align the screw
holes. Be sure the rubber gasket is in place or the differential
may leak.
5. Install the 2.5x10mm screws and tighten securely.
