did a hack n' tap if you're interested in going that route, went real easy, as long as you have a grinder

I did mine this last fall. It was my first one but it went pretty smooth. I left it on the trans and just made sure the jeep was lifted high enough for it to be comfortable. Just get yourself a decent set of snap ring pliers or two. One thing to be careful with is removing the small dome on the back and then the back half of the case because of the oil pump inside. It is pretty easy I hear to break the oil pickup tube out of the pump. I had no problem- just take it easy. There is actually a decent video on youtube being done on a wrangler if you just look up "SYE install". It is on a TJ wrangler. It should give you the just of an idea.
