Thumbs up

6 flange bolts on each axle, 3 bolts on drive-shaft flange (first loosening large nut on drive-shaft so that it can compress and clear the centering pin that goes into the diff flange). Vertical bolt at from of diff, 2 large socket head bolts at rear (very tight, make sure your jackstands are secure before pulling on them. Better to position breaker bar to push up or pull down rather than to the side). Also remove ASR speed sensor, maybe other sensors, Exhaust does not need to be dropped but the converter heat shield does to get a wrench on the driveshaft. There will not be room to swing it so turn driveshaft with pipe wrench on rear flange area instead.

Why removing?
