the rear diff is alot easier to take off than the front diff. The front diff can be a pain...

tie some steel cable to a tree. Now extend the cable about 50 feet or so and strap it to your diff. Take off as fast as you can. You need to be going about 50 mph. The diff will pop out like a limp dick in a wet *****.

But seriously, try taking the bolts out. Use an impact wrench.
