Hey I'm tearing apart my old 7.5 and I am a little stuck. When I try to remove the cross pin it slides up about halfway then gets stuck on the ring gear. It is "notched" back for half the pin then it isn't.

Any tips?

 

so you using the old 7.5 to learn on i guess?

i might have to do the same since i cant sell mine.

sorry i couldnt be any help

 

if its a **** rear end spin it till its layn flat. try getting your hand in from the rear and pushing it foward. ive never had a problem getting any center pin out

 

all done. thanks for any advice. tearing apart my first axle was actually kinda fun. got $20 for it scrape and im selling the ring and pinion local to another forum member.

I took 2 leafpacks, the axle housing, 2 drums, 3 shafts, and some odd and ends for a total of 200lbs of iron. i only got $22 lol.
