Hey Jo ! If I find a trooper with the 6NZ code how do I remove the gearing and what tools do I need to get the job done . I would like the process explained in detail . Removing the entire rear and front axle will be a deal breaker for me .

Hiya Travis...

No need to remove the axles at all.

The differential housings ("3rd member") slide out of the axle pumpkins.

Roughly speaking...(how I do it, any better ways welcome!)

1) remove drive shaft at axle end.

2) remove all bolts that hold 3rd member in pumpkin housing

3) Pull axle shafts enough to release/clear splines from diff.

4) Pull 3rd member out.

5) curse, cause ya forgot to empty diff oil first, and yer covered in ICKKK!!

You'll end up with this (3rd member)...
.

.
...but not damaged hopefully...and with 43 'teeth'

From here the 3rd can be taken apart/boken down....
.... and the ring gear,carrier housing and pinion can be seperated from the 3rd member "housing/case"

Hope that helps...and thanks for YOUR help

Jo
