Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I was able to remove the diff for the quaife install by taking apart only one side of the suspension. If anyone knows how to bleed or compress the airbag for re-installation please chime in.

When I do it I've never had to compress the suspension air-bag strut. You just need to get the lower control arms loose enough to hang so the strut will slide right in. As far as I'm aware there is no tool to compress it.
