I did find a few threads on here on how to do it but didn't trust myself to actually perform it. That is partly the reason why I had a shop do it.

The shop is regarded as one of the best (Z shops) here in Southern California. The reviews online were mainly positive. But I am disappointed that they botched this job. Not gonna lie. They installed a Quaife diff on my car last year and haven't had problems with it, so I'm a little undecided on what to do for future service(s).
