	OK, yes, we are talking two different things.  Are you talking
about the rear mount which goes up & over the subframe, and has one
single bolt that goes thru the subframe?  If so, I'd _guess_ that you
still have to remove the front of the diff to get to it.  I don't
_think_ you could get to that mount othewise...  I could be wrong tho,
it's been known to happen occasionally...  When I removed the diff, the
front came off, then I had to lever the front of the diff downwards,
allowing the rear mounting bolt to come up out of the frame and then out
of the car.  Same with the '87 5kQ I nabbed my new diff from.  HTH
