Hey guys, just bought a VR-VT IRS DIFF Mini Spool, 4.11s just trying to get the axle stubs off too get too the Centre and pinion gear.. But they just won't move, pulled and pry bar few smacks with a hammer a wood block still nothing, they still in the same spot with the tiniest bit of play in them.. Don't know if it is the spool making it difficult or axles are just stuck but haven't came across anyone with issues.. Damn has me stuffed and pissing me off a bit, help would be greatly appreciated cheers

Could possibly be that there is no taper for the retaining ring to compress back into the spline area when removing the axles.

A slide hammer and adapter should do the trick.
