One of the simplist ways out would be to use a drill bit slightly larger in Outer Diameter of the screws shaft . Drill the center of the stripped screw until the head of the screw seperates from the rest of the screws shaft, once the part is removed from the chassis there should be roughly 1/16"-1/8" of material sticking out of the diff case,center diff stays etc for you to get ahold of with a small pair of vise grips to twist out.
With the screw being of a counter sunk design you should hardly drill any material from the chassis if this is done correctly.
