Default jeep cherokee rear seals

My axle seals are leaking and I'm having trouble removing the 8mm locking
pin in the rear differential. By what I've been told this pin must be
removed to get to the axle clips, which will then release the axles so I
can get to the seals. I've cracked 2 sockets trying to remove this locking
pin. Is this pin reverse thread? Any help will be appreiciated. Thanks,
Mike

It'll be a normal right hand thread.
Buy only Craftsmen, Snap-On, S&K, anything else will just skin your
knuckles and ruin parts.

Bill, Thanks for the info. After buggaring up the bolt I went to Sears and
bought their bolt remover. It is like an easy out that grabs the head of
the bolt, worked Great! Bob Villa was RIGHT!! Mike
