Re: Changing rear ends....Hard or Easy??
When I swapped in my Turbo Coupe 8.8 (by myself) my best friend was my tranny jack. It has swivel casters that allowed precise positioning.
You can do the same thing with a floor jack to lower the disconnected old diff and then raise the new one. Also leave the tires on. Then you can just roll the whole thing around on your garage floor. I swapped a 8.8 for an 8.8. Search this site or ask more questions cuase I'm not sure if there are differences with a 7.5. Like control arms, brake hookups, u-joints, etc..... Just so you can be prepared.
