Attach a piece ot 2X12 to your floor jack to act more as a shelf. That will keep the differential from rolling forward. Jack it up and put jack stands under it.

Since you are going to take it apart, you might want to consider putting only the axle tubes back on before putting the unit back on to the car. It makes it much lighter and easier to move around.

One word of hindsight advise....if it starts to fall, let it fall.
