[s-cars] Rear diff installation

[Bill Mahoney]

Oh yeah 
"My" first step is always to remove the transmission, but that's just
me;) 
.. you may want to 'consider' new ebrake cables as they are prolly MUCH
easier with the drive shaft moved and the diff out.

Yes, Bill, I did think of it and I even bought the RH seal (the cheaper 
one). The 122mm LH seal is $65 alone. What about the tail seal at the 
drive shaft? Do they ever leak? What's the list consensus or replacing
both?
Also, what else do I have to replace once disconnected? The triple 6 
square bolts on the dive shaft? Does the exhaust need to come off 
completely, or can it be set aside? Any more pointers? Thx in advance!
