George, differential repair is something that's best left to a shop that specializes in it. Sure, you can get it apart, but do you know how to set it up when it goes back together? You will need to:
1. Set the pinion gear depth, which requires a special fixture. (Actually, most shops cheat and just re-use the old shim stack.)
2. Set the pinion bearing preload, which is measured in inch-pounds. And since you're crushing a sleeve, you can only tighten the pinion nut. If you over-tighten the nut you'll need to disassemble the pinion and replace the crush sleeve.
3. Set the ring and pinion backlash. This requires a dial indicator, and as I recall it's done by changing the shim stack on that pesky carrier.
4. Set the carrier bearing preload, which means adding more shims to the shim stack.
Now I don't doubt that you're up to the task, but since it looks like you've already got the rear end out of the machine, it's a simple matter to take the whole mess to a drivetrain shop. They would rather disassemble it themselves than have you come in with a bucket o' parts.
