    Differential bolt replacement

    Hey guys,
    I have an 8 inch houseing that a local guy is buying, buttts when I pulled it out from under the shelf, I noticed some (3) of the 10 diff. houseing bolts were a little messed up. I have extras and would like to remove and replace them and was wondering  which is the best way you guys go about doing this. Center punch?, or drill them out? or just hit em with a Big hammer?
    Thanks!

    I used an air hammer with a center punch type bit in it.  Use hearing protection!  Drives them right out.

    Money you enjoy wasting is NOT wasted money... unless your wife finds out.
