Try placing your float in warm soapy water and watch for bubbles or fuel to escape. Not too hot; just maybe hot enough that you can't hold your whole hand in it for more than ten seconds. Rotate the

Won't matter on the half-shafts, since the axles are allowed to rotate at different rates by design. (That's what the diff does.) So if you carefully installed them aligned, the first turn will undo

I used a spot-weld cutter from Eastwood (www.eastwoodco.com) and managed to cut all the welds with only one or two cuts of non-welded metal. I then used my angle grinder to grind everything flat, and

I used the cutter to cut through the braces as needed, then gently bent them out of the way. They moved far enough that I was able to remove the old batt box (in pieces) and fit the new one in. The n
