Are you changing the axles too? You only need to pull the diff itself out. It should be the 12 12mm bolts that connect the output shafts to the axles, 4 14mm bolts that connect the diff to the driveshaft, the 4 17mm acorn nuts holding the cover into the subframe, then the 2 17mm bolts in the snout. You'll have to wrestle the diff out of the output shafts, it's not an easy job for one person.
