Oh man, I had to replace a snapped rear bulkhead on my non-X Savage. My middle arm was sore just after that ~15min. job.

I never really pulled the diffs out of my Revo when I had it. They just sorta remained intact because they never gave me any problems .

The E-Revo does have two screws that secure the skidplate to the bulkhead that need to be removed, but once those are out the bulks should come out with 5 more screws (2 sandwiching the shock mount/chassis/bulkhead together and 2 more sandwiching the body mount/chassis/bulkhead together). Then there's a screw holding the 2 bulk halves together, and once that's out you can remove the screw pins holding the driveshafts in, and the diff should slide right out after the halves are separated.
It just sounds a lot more like a PITA than it really is IMO.
