well none of the above mentioned methods worked for getting that center pin out.. so I had to dremell, which took forever... after finally getting the pin out I realize, oh hey no c clips. so the previous owner use c clip eliminators, great. Now I pulled the carrier out, cleaned all the metal out from the dremell, and started to paint. Let it dry and the then tried to bolt on that nice Moser cover you also saw on snap chat and it doesn't fit. I ordered the cover for a GM 12 bolt passenger car and that is what I got, so I ran the part number of the housing. This is where things get bad.. turns out the housing is GM's "o type" housing which was used in Oldsmobile's for like 2 or 3 years. They have a 12 bolt cover and look like a 12 bolt, but inside are just the 8.5 10 bolts with 28 spline axles, the only benefit is they come with bolt in axles.. So basically I got double ****ed on the rear since he said it was 3.73 but was really 3.23 (there is like no aftermarket support for "o-type" rears) and also said it was a Chevy 12 bolt. Both of which I guess is my fault, either way very annoying. But in the end it will go in the car and I guess a further resolution will be delt with when/if this one blows up too.

Ill be putting it in the car and bring the drive shaft to get repaired monday
