I answered this in the other forum, so not going to repeat all that info...
However, is the CV boot leaking grease? (the rubber boot on the shaft leading to the rear diff). It looks like it in the pic. If it is, you may want to get that dealt with sooner rather than later.

Thank you Thomas1. Did you just pull both plugs to drain, replace the bottom one and use a hand pump to move the WS quarts into the fill hole until it runs out? Just like a rear end?
Thanks, Scott
