Sounds fairly easy.

Quick question though... I have an inclined driveway... and it would be a lot easier for me if I could do all the draining while my front wheels were just a little elevated on the driveway (wheels chocked of course)... but then I would have to roll it back down a little bit to refill it. I assume it's safe to roll it 5 feet without any oil in the differential, but I wanted to be sure.

Edit: Oh... and I assume all of this should be done with the differential is still warm...
