And toss it in. Hopefully the rain will stop and it won't be too miserable.

Gearhead- it's a small screw that's recessed deep in the carrier, nothing worked.
Haha, good point. Still a bit of a shame. Sorry to hear about your part-searching difficulties. Its hard at work (Advance Auto) when a customer comes in with a "custom" vehicle that has parts from several different manufactures and years... Like a '69 Scout with 80's Chevy rear end and suspension, and 90's Jeep front end/suspension... I didn't even ask what it had for an engine/transmission, I was still trying to figure out his suspension problems...

Gearhead, the only way he's going to be able to take that Dana 60 apart is by cutting the axle shafts or possibly the pinion gear retainer if he can get to it.
