Anybody had any issues with their driveshafts getting stuck to their pinion shafts? I'm trying to replace the rear tranny seal on my '85 745 w/ LT1/4L60E. I can't remove the driveshaft because I can't get the driveshaft to separate from the pinion shaft. I've removed all 4 nuts/bolts, but now I'm stuck. I haven't had this apart since building the car 4 years ago, though a shop did rebuild the rear end last time I blew up my gears.

I've tried penetrating oil and a cold chisel. I'm worried that If I whack on it too much I'm going to damage my pinion bearing/seals.

Any guesses???

thanks,
simon
