No problem . Between the transmission and the diff changes, the diff was visually more pleasing to change. The amount of junk that came out was impressive. However, I didn't notice any driving difference. The tranny however had pristine looking fluid come out, but it shifts like butter now. Go figure.

Some pics from when I changed my fluid a couple weeks ago. So you guys can see the drain and fill locations.
Sorry they're so large and some are blurry. Drain Plug Fill Plug

Just for reference, but how often should you change your differential and transmission fluid?

IIRC it's something like 30k miles, but IMO if you're really hard on the car it wouldn't hurt to do it more often.
