I'd appreciate a link or two with directions or tips on the easiest way to change that fluid. Not a lot of room there! Thank You!

I usually remove the nut immediately forward of the front diff. It's the left attachment nut for the rack-and-pinion steering unit. Once I have the nut off, I slide the bolt forward in its hole for room to work.
A word of warning: this nut is TIGHT at 200 ft.lbs. Getting a torque wrench in there is nearly impossible, so match-mark the nut and unit so you can at least get it close.
