Replacing rear axel wheel seal 2WD
#2
It's a mess, but it's not difficult. Remove the differential cover, rear wheels, brake rotor or drum. Push both axles inward until they stop. Remove the retainer bolt:
Remove the "C" clips from the end of each axle, (one on each axle) and carefully pull the axles out. While the axles are out, do not turn the carrier. Replace the seals.

Id recommend replacing the wheel bearings while you're in there. A lot of times the seal starts leaking because the bearing is on the way out. It will only add a few $$ to the job and is easy enough once you have everything apart.
