    Take it off and drill it in on the bench. Its not a part of the rear case. Or remove the rear yoke, and slide the tone ring off then drill. The tone ring wont want to slide off because its going to be rusted onto the output shaft, so unbolt the sensor housing. Then you can heat up the housing on the bench with a torch and grab the bottom of the sensor with visegrips and turn it out. Hell, better yet just put a new one in the other sensor hole and go!.

    As you can see in this one, there is a gasket under the part you are looking at that the 6 bolts hold to the rear case.

    Above all this is an external part you are looking at. The most you are going to do is drill the tone ring, or screw up the sensor mount threads.

    Man, with that kind of accessibility I would certainly unbolt the yolk, then the retainer, put it on a bench and torch the plastic, or take a punch to it and drive it out of the retainer, no need for a drill.

    Your theory would work great if he had the external speed sensor but his pics have the internal tone ring.
    He should just disassemble and drill it out .

    It is external, its not inside the rear case.

    Its not. It is bolted to the back of the rear case.

    Yup,
    I did not even notice the pic in the OP. That retainer is bolted on and is iron. Unbolt it, torch the plastic, the piece falls out. Clean out the bore and install a new part. That is cake.
