Took me about two hours hacksawing and chiseling out teh beeotch, but it finally gave! What a PITA it was. Getting sprayed w/liquid silicone just made the experience all the better!
Picked up my rear diff w/the 4.36 ring n pinion this past WED. Installed the SPL solid diff bushings on 4 NOV. Had to make two special tools to pull it through the subframe. 1/4" plate steel w/a 1/2" hole drilled through it so a grade 8 bolt in the lengths of 7.5" and 4.5" could be welded to it. Used grade 8 nuts and washers. Pressed it into the subframe easily w/a 2', 1/2" drive breaker bar.
