I did this once by undoing the rear tranny mount and levering the back
end of the tranny aside with a big prybar (I was kind of manic at the
time) , but it wasn't pretty, and I don't recommend it. Bite the bullet
and drop the diff. Change the dif seals and check the condition of the
mounts while it's out. Car's been hanging around this long, it deserves
it.
