Question:

I'm working on removing the diff on my '78 spitfire.  Here is what I have
done so far:

Disconnected drive shaft and side axles, I have disconnected the rear shocks
so the side axles move freely.  I have removed the long rear mounting bolt
and unbolted the two front mounts.  I have also removed the four studs that
go through the spring.  The exhaust has also been removed.. that was a job
all by itself...

Problem:

This little bugger is stuck, what do I need to do to get it to budge and
then remove?  I'm sure it's stuck on the spring but I'm kinda out of ideas
on how to seperate the two.
