never been inside the aforementioned diff, but if it's like any other
semi floating axle, do the following:

drain fluid and remove cover.
remove tires and brake drums ( may or may not have to do this)
remove cross pin retaining bolt
remove cross pin
push axle flange in towards differential and remove C clip with a
magnet or pick (requires 2 ppl)
repeat for other side.
remove spider gears
install Power trax unit
install C clips
put it all back together.

HTH,
