2010 Explorer IRS Rear Diff Removal Q's

Gentlemen,

I am wanting to remove a rear diff cover from a 2010 Explorer with IRS.
Can anybody tell me what needs to be done to do this? And what tools are required if anything special?

Looks like the whole diff has to be dropped. If I simply remove the four? bolts in it, will it lower down far enough with the axles on it to get the cover off?

Thank you for your help.

Rem
