Hey guys, I got a problem. It appears my rear pinion seal is leaking pretty bad and needs to be replaced. How hard is this job? Do I need any special tools. Any advise?

Thanks
Aaron

 

its pretty simple imho. i have a 95 4wd pu and it sprung a nasty leak while i was in flagstaff az. good thing it happened when napa was open. i had to buy a 32mm socket, the seal ($18) and gear oil. this was years ago. I did the whole thing in about one hour. the only time consuming step was getting the nut loosened and re-tightened. i used a crow bar to hold the yoke in place. later i had the nut torque to spec.
