				Differential cover.
			 
			
			I’m being a little cautious perhaps, but I have the differential completely loose, but the rear cover mount is stuck to the subframe. I removed the rear mount from the rear floor and removed the rear mount. Am I missing something? 87 560SL Bdbenz |

			The diff cover has sealant and you must gently pry it off to break the bond.  Keep a drip pan handy this is a messy job.

 Remove the single vertical bolt that connects the diff cover to the sub-frame, and the two vertical bolts at the front of the diff. The rubber isolaters may stick to the sub-frame; judicious prying required. |

			Thank you. I was able to get the long bolt from the cover out and dropped the diff. Went well after I got everything unbolted.
