If that is what they said, then do it. I have always changed mine 50 miles after any diff. work. Just take the cover off and let it drain. There might be 14-16 bolts, i cant remember small details, remove old gasket or material from cover and apply a bead of rtv around the whole thing and i always do a circle around the bolt holes. Bolt it back up and refill it. The fill plug is on the drivers side near the top.

Dont need to change it. I didnt when i put in my 410 and a guy who does them everyday at a transmission and differential shop said dont even worry about. Fluid doesnt get all that hott or dirty like engine oil and the metal from wearing in new gears is minimal.
