Now that I think about it I had a problem on one side when I took my Spicers off. Even with the scews in the gear to pull on one side would not slide over the end of the axle shaft. Turns out the snap ring had been missing from the end of the axle shaft for some time. The gear had slid in and out causing the very end of the splines on the shaft to burr. The burr was on the outside lip of the snap ring groove on each spline. I had to sit with a little file and smooth out each spline enough to allow the gear to slide over it. What a pain.
