The pins have the differential planet wheels on them -3 on each side of the diff. The halfshafts have the sun wheel as part of the end of the halfshaft -that's why they won't simply slide out. So you need to pull the whole diff unit out of the case with both halfshafts still in place, then undo the 6 nuts that are on the other end of those 6 bolts and the differential can be split into 2 halves (make sure there is a mark on the diff perimeter to allow you to "clock" the halves back in the same place). Then you can slide out the halfshafts across the inside of the diff.
