[Spits] Separating spring from Diff

[Todd Bermudez]

Hi All,

Since I blowed up the diff in our '68 GT6, I went out & purchased a diff from a '79 Spit.  I went ahead & pulled the back off the blowed up punkin...not good inside there!  I wanted to use the case from the GT6 diff with the 6 studs rather than the 4 stud Spit case.  Well, not being an expert on these cars, I decided against tearing the Spit case apart.  The problem is, I cannot separate the spring from the diff.  I see there's some sort of pin in the center...certainly it's not holding the spring to the case?  How is this done?  I'm going to use the GT6 spring.

Cheers,
