Did anybody save the write up with pics? I usually take everything and copy it to word for historical reasons.

k i figured id just take it apart and figure out on my own, not bad, pull both covers off, take rear cover off, remove pinion. then remove the crap ton of smaller bolts around the ring and pull apart - the driver shaft will have a gear, remove clip and slide gear onto new shaft and put clip back on - reassemble, which i will do tomorrow once i get some more cleaner.
btw what is the lil round disc that kinda rubber but has grease or something in it that fits loosely in a slot in the inside of the case.

My buddy just changed an output shaft on my car this weekend. He took tons of pics and is working on a write-up as we speak.
