Does anybody have some detailed instructions? Links to Mike Mercury's don't seem to work for me. http://mikemercury.home.att.net/342.htm
Thanks in advance.

dont forget to tighten the carrier or sub frame mounting bolts with a ratchet only, along with the trans/diff mount. An impact will break the bolts off the mount and break the weld for the nut on the frame! learned from experience, Later reading through the assembly manual I read where it says use hand tools only on these bolts. Good luck !

If you have an A4 best and easiest way is to remove BOTH the trans and diff in one piece at the same time---otherwise it's difficult to get just the diff removed as the rear trans shaft that goes into the diff is so long that you have to lower the whole engine/trans assy. and even remove the TQ tube cover to let it drop far enough-
