I wish to take away the spherical cap on the skin of the differential housing on my 1983 R80ST. I intention to construct a spindle that can match by way of the differential and permit me to make use of a single-sided swingarm paddock stand.

I assume there’s not a lot cause to take away this cover so I am unable to discover any data on the right way to do it. I’ve banged on it a little bit and it appears firmly planted. I do not wish to injury it so in search of steering.

Hooked up is a pic of the cap I wish to take away. It is proper within the middle of the housing.

Any recommendation enormously appreciated. My final purpose is to measure the ID of the diff to find out the scale of the spindle I would like. Additionally does this cover serve any goal aside from aesthetics and to maintain the within protected?
