Thanks to my very good friend, dragonbreath, we dropped my rear diff, swapped out the cover, put in some Redline, and installed Whiteline diff bushings.
On top of that, he tracked down a rattle that had been driving me crazy the past few months. Get this - my demon bolt had no nut on it, which I find ironic, since everyone seems to have trouble getting the damn thing off. Plus, there was a nut missing on the other HFC. No typical exhaust leak noise, so just kind of weird. It turned out that the bolts were too short to begin with.
Oh, and while my Z was up on jack stands, I noticed that I had a nail in my driver-side rear. Guess I will be putting my Discount Tire road warranty to use sooner than I had expected. Thankful I found this before driving to ZDayZ.
All in all, a great day spent away from work.
