[DeTomaso] ZF Pumkin trick?

[John Taphorn]

Nolan, there is a secret and I'll let you in on it.  If you remove the allen 
bolts that hold the differential together, it will split in two and you can 
remove the assembly.  The challenge is to get those allen head bolts out 
without stripping the heads.  I have opened many a ZF and have probably not 
had to drill out a bolt head on one.  Use a very high quality 5mm allen and 
be very careful on its alignment.

Good luck
JT
