Yeah I had a friend help get it out of the car but tearing it down wasn't to bad. Cleaning it sucked though! Thank god I have a hot water pressure washer at work.

Looking good! Do you have a pinion depth setting tool? If not, see what shim was under the pinion gear bearings on both the old and new. I'll bet they are close if not the same, and you can use that as a starting point. Then you can use a new crush sleeve and set the pre-load on the pinion gear and be pretty sure you are good to go unless a tooth contact pattern test indicates otherwise.
