Lockrite Removal

Widmayer123 · Apr 13, 2008

My 99 Cherokee Came with A lockrite in the rear, And it is FUBAR.
How the hell do you get these things out?
All I can get out id the cross pin and springs.
Do the 4 pins come all the way out?
Any help would be great.

Pull the carrier, remove the cross pin retainer screw, cross pin and spin locker until it falls out.

Thats probably why it is FUBAR.

Found the problem, There is a C clip that must be removed first, And its being a MOFO!!!!

Uhh yeah, you have to pull the c-clips on the D35 to get the axles out. I assumed you were already that far.

Sometimes the suction from the gear oil doesn't want to release the c-clip. Spray the clip with BrakeKleen or similar. Then use a dental pick to play with the clip to get it to fall and try shaking the axle make it drop as well, it'll come. -B

Got it===
Had to cut the C clip!!

At least you didn't end up having to do what this guy did:
