Well, finally started my differential swap project. I'm using
http://www.318ti.org/notebook/diff_c...ion/index.html as a reference.
I will be installing a torsen diff from a 99 Z3 6 cylinder.
Drove front on ramps plus added jacks.
Tight spot with a 2 car garage.
I didn't even try taking these off with a breaker bar. Plus, the wheels were already off. I used a 30mm 12 point
with an impact gun
30MM nut removed.
I started removing the driver's side half shaft. I had to loosen the exhaust and allow it to hang in order to get good access. The E Torx bolts came out without any issues.
On the pax side, I'm unable to get the half shaft off the hub. I've pounded the hell out of the half shaft but it will not budge. It currently sits hanging by some wire until I figure out how to remove that half shaft. If I can't remove it, I might just use the factory 318TI half shafts.
Stuck at this stage...
