Pull the stub shafts and open it up, it should be obvious.

The stub shafts are the "axles" that go into the diff that the real axles bolt to. They are pressed in so with the diff out of the car put a pry bar between the diff and the stub shaft then tap the stub shaft flange away from the diff. Then you can undo the bolts that hold the diff housing to the case. Does the car drive forward but not backwards?
