I've never had a 9" center section apart before, is this the kind of deal where I can just keep track of the shims as I take it apart and get it back together just like it was before?

Its fairly easy compared to a GM unit. No shims to set back lash. Rotating plate and lock bolts. Just figure what you need to get the pinion gear centered. You can calculate the shims used by the depth written on the gear face and what shims and depth on the old gear.
