Easy is a relative word. Its not "hard" but you have to drop the rear end.

We had to also disconnect the rear exhaust and sway bar to drop the pumpkin far enough to install the diff cover. Not hard to do, just time consuming.

I put mine on while doing a 3.3 rear end swap so it was very easy.

The pumpkin is actually bolted to the cross beam in addition to the chassis. Gotta drop it to get the cover off.

We charge 2 hrs. For fluid, we use Motul Gear 75-90 weight. Plenty of diff covers in stock if anyone needs one:
