  24. Remove the differential side retainers using ST.
    NOTE:
    • When the wrench COMPL retainer interferes with the converter case, align the cutout portion with the interference part.
    • Support the differential case assembly by hand to avoid damaging the retainer mounting hole of the converter case.
    • Keep the left and right differential side retainers and left and right bearing outer races by attaching tags or in similar ways to make it possible to identify RH and LH sides.
