I'm gonna try it without removing the diff.
Or am I reading this wrong. Is it actually removed, or just loosened and pushes out of the way. |

The diff is loosened and moved out of the way. Sorry for late reply.

i'm in the process of doing this.
my passenger side wheel bearing went bad / drivers side axle tore a boot after my last road trip. i've had the parts to fix this leak for some time. now i have no excuse to not tackle the front end with new parts and fix this leak! and of course while taking out the alternator one of my radiator hoses popped off a fitting. cooling hoses refresh ordered. ive got everything disassembled, have to lift the engine up and start working on the diff. thanks again for this writeup

Not sure how your wheel bearing went bad from a torn boot, but yea sometimes while fixing one thing, another one breaks.

Opposite sides.
Passenger side was getting a creek / pop rotational noise when turning. When I got it all pulled apart looks like the bearing is starting to go, slightly off balance. Drivers side has a torn boot. Refreshing the front end. Hopefully won’t have to dive this deep for a while

Anyone know where I can get the rivet tool for the plastic rivets? All the ones I can find are too small for the bmw rivets
