Pull the driveshaft out like mjr said and move it around that way. Be sure to put a bag or something over the tailshaft so you don't lose any fluid.

And mark the driveshaft before pulling it off.

You know, everyone says to do that but I have never had a problem with vibration after pulling driveshafts.

why would you mark the drive shaft before pulling it out i used to work on them and that makes no sense it doesnt matter how it goes in as long as it bolts up because it comes balanced

Just something people do so they don't worry about the idea of it causing vibration and the haynes manual along with some others say to do so.
