You could try using one of those big metal syringe type units to suck out the fluid.
That's what I did on my 240.

Does the 740 have the speedo sensor in the dif?
If so, then you may have to re-shim it when you replace the dif cover gasket.

Syringe is easier.

BTW: Watch out if you put sythetic gear oil in there. It may exagerate any drive shaft seal leak. Had that happen too.
