Cheese, you should not have to pull the carrier out to replace the spider gears. There is a cross pin that has a retaining bolt, pull this out. Two of the spider gears will come out. To get the other two, you need to remove the c-clips. I'm almost certain you need to un-bolt the axle by removing the 4 bolts behind the brake drums to get the c-clips out. I'm not a diff expert by any means. I would reference your Chilton's manual.
Look and Randy's Ring and Pinion for parts. I think they have the best deals.

When I was looking for a rear axle for another project one of the guys at the auto wreckers said to check the spiders carefully on the gen3 Dakota axles as MOST that he sees are missing teeth.
I checked mine right away but they were good.
No idea how long they will last with the Cummins in front of them :<(
