I went ahead and pulled the cover and drained the fluid. Pulled the spider gears out and then the axle shafts.

I measured the axleshafts for any info I needed to in order to have Dutchman Motorsports make me a custom pair with the 5x5.5 lug pattern.

Also I pulled the drum brakes off simple by removing the 4 bolts holding each bracket to the flange.
