ECGS tip

I do have another thread on the whole process.
But this was the most important thing I learned during the install.

Just wanted to make others aware that the needle bearing can break during the removal process. I’d highly suggest you place a rag or plastic bag in the differential just past the bearing. (Inside the spider gear)

If the bearing breaks, the piece(s) should be sitting right in front of the spider gear.
I used a magnetic tool to retrieve the pieces.

Hope it helps.
