I left the diff connected an even left the tires on. Not really any tips just work slowly and double check everything. The flex disc is probably the harder job of the two. The flex disc is pretty straight forward. I marked mine with white marker to keep alignment. Your BMW dealer should have all of the torque values. If you have anymore questions hit me up.

So if I understand you correctly, you never fully removed the diff or disconnected the left and right output shafts to the wheels. You simply left everything connected to the diff and dropped it enough to get to 3 mounting bushings to replace them. Correct?
I was wondering how tough it would be to slide those output drives off the diff.
Thanks for the advise.
