So I'm new to this whole "run in dirt" thing and just picked up a SC10 4x4 for Father's Day. Naturally I got it put together and THEN read how the diffs aren't filled properly and the issues with the shocks.

So while rebuilding the shocks is no big deal I was wondering if I have to tear apart this whole truck to get to the differentials? It sure looks like I do. Anyone with any tips that may prevent me from rebuilding everything?
