Hello everyone I've been trying for the last while off and on over 3 years to get the interchange case off my Viper.
I have every bolt that I can find every snap clip removed, and the tension off the track and it will not budge.
Everything but the parking brake is disassembled and I'm an idiot I forgot to take pictures as I was going LOL.
Any advice on what could be my next step?

If it still doesn't want to move, sometimes you have to remove airbox so that you can tap on the brake hub while at the same time pulling chaincase.
Helps to have two people for that.

Yep, forgot about the one with the nut. Also, remove the 2 bolts that hold brake caliper.

Thanks guys and I meant 2003 not all three hahah, I have everything that I could get loose loose and I might have to tap on the inside out is there another bolt besides the two of that hold the removable piece of the frame support holding it on? I've checked all over and cannot find any more. The only thing that I have not removed is the parking brake levers with the springs please tell me I don't have to move that because I've been reading that it's complete torture to get it back on.

You do have to remove it.
Take a bunch of pictures of it before you take it apart, and reference them when going back together.
Its not that bad. I will help you if needed.
You have the track loose, right?

Once your track tensioners are loose, you also have to loosen the outside big nut on the big rear wheel, which is the rear axel nut. That will let the track go loose. No nut between chaincase and frame…

Thank you, I'll be going out maybe tonight, maybe tomorrow, worst birthday ever I'm in bed and I hear the pump that we have in the house going nuts and I hear water rushing my mother is in her sewing room yes I live with my mother, ignoring everything and come find out the line going into her toilet the plastic nut broke in half, had to drive an hour to the next town Church three different hardware stores to get one come back change it and then I had to go help someone that went through the ice.Once your track tensioners are loose, you also have to loosen the outside big nut on the big rear wheel, which is the rear axel nut.

Not fun, and people see ice and think, it's ice, it's safe...... It just froze over 2 nights ago....

I got to ask the park break doesn't have to come off the levers? I figured I'd double check before I went down the rabbit hole ahhaha
