Brake lines are a bitch even with the right spanners.. they are copper nuts so its easyer just to you vice grips.. but then you will need to bleed your brakes after that. When i use to change mine i left connect to the lines and lifted them over the diff.. no bleeding and perfect peddle after.

Use a hydraulic jack, make it easier to drag the diff out

Put the back of the car on stands and support the diff with the jack then WD the nuts.
