What am I doing wrong??!!!!
I have a 10 bolt from a chevy II nova and decided to updrade to disc brakes from the 98-02 LS1. My problem is for the life of me I can't get the spider gear pin out to rempve the axels. I've spent the last 6 hours trying to get this $Q#$@$^#%$ out! Short of dynamite, does anyone have any ideas?

Re: What am I doing wrong??!!!!
Did you remove the retaining bolt that goes through it from the side?
Just checking... Ted.

I'd agree it's pretty common for that pin to break and have a piece stuck in the carrier.

Re: What am I doing wrong??!!!!
The pin definitely broke off. Spent the whole day trying to get the darned thing out. Found out it's not a good idea to use a hammer. This rear end's toast! Just happened to remember that I had another spare laying around. It's also a ten bolt but from a Camaro. It's about four inches wider but I was using two inch spacers anyway. The spring perches are even in the right spot. Talk about lucky!
