I am going to borrow a tranny jack from another guys I know. The donor tranny is getting delivered to me today and I am going to start tearing into if to get feel of what I am dealing with before I remove the tranny. If this diff doesn't end up lasting me, my other option is pulling the tranny out of the claret I am currently driving. It has like 30-35K on a Subaru rebuild, so it is an option that might happen anyways as I plan on keeping the better of the two.

Another question. I know you say replace the rear seal, what others items should be replaced while I have it apart?
Go ahead and check your axles before you get it up in the air. See if they need replacing because that's easy while in the air.
