Default write up on pulling diff./changing gears

I will be tackling this project soon and will have access to a lift and was wondering if there was a write up or if someone could possibly tell me the best way to get to and remove ( i think its called the "pumpkin") and change the gears. Thanks.

paper should be there by now. It deals with the way I rebuild them but not so much as how to remove them from the car. That will be in the manuals or many here will giv eyou advice.
Good luck.

Thanks alot gtr. The info you sent me is very thorough . I've got a Haynes Manual and Assembly Manual, so I'll just have to look through those good when I get back to the house. Thanks again.

You're welcome. I put some time into making that paper as basic as I could and still offer the builder some upgrade information. Now you can get a better then stock unit and one that is an upgrade from a typical rebuild.
Good luck with your project.
