best way to drop entire rearend?

Im pulling the rearend out of a parts car and need to know whats the best way to pull it out as a whole? I want this to be as simple as possible. I already have the motor, tranny+drive shaft out, so the only I have left is the rearend. Any advice would be appreciated, thanks.

Just take it loose at the subframe. Leave the control arms intact. There are only six bolts that hold it all in place. You will need to undo the rear sway bar bracket bolts. There are two on each side. Also you need to take loose all the brake cables. Once that is all done it drops right out.

Have fun. It shouldnt take any longer than 30min.

Also your PPF that runs the length of the car need s to be deconnected at the rear diff or in the front, by 2 large bolts.
