Be sure to place a jack under the Differential to hold it.
Loosen the 4 13mm that hold the mount to the body.
then loosen the 8 15mm that hold the cover on.

the 2 top bolts are hard to get to, so lowering the diff makes it easier to reach them.

remove the bolt in the center of the hub, 13mm. it holds the axle to the hub.

if you have the Annular axles, just unbolt the 6 bolts on the differential end, push towards the hub drop it down and slide it out. The piece in the Diff can stay in w/o removing it.

I had a surprise at PNP one time. I pulled the back cover, and someone didn`t do their job. All the oil in it spilled out, got me to moving pretty quick.
