This is on my SN95 with a Torsen T-2.

I've pulled the thing apart to replace the wheel seals, and am now reassembling.

C-clips are in. There are two washers that go one on each side, then the kingpin goes in the middle.

Unfortunately these washers will not separate. They will both go to one side or the other, but will not come apart. I can't slip a razor knife between them or anything.

So I can't stick the kingpin in and finish the job.

Anyone know what's going on?

Here is a lousy pic that may or may not help visualize this problem.
