I've got a leaky passenger side axle shaft seal. Now, how hard is this to replace? I had little to no time to do it tonight and was wanting to tackle it tomorrow after work when I have the part. I've never had problems with this before but apparently this is the problem. I tried to pry on it a little with no results and was afraid to accidentally cause more damage to the transmission than what is already wrong. Marcus, I'm going to guess you've probably had experience with this, any help is appreciated. Thanks

how much are seals and where can i get them... i have a leaky one on mine that i should change before i put my transmission back in.
and just a note, whenever i pull the driveshafts i dont bother with the hub and all that. if you take the bolt off at the lower control arm and use a pry bar to lower the arm down while you pull the whole suspension, brake assembly toward you off of the ball joint and that will pull the shaft out of the transmission... i just recomend having somebody under the car helping pull the cv joint while your pulling on the rotor so that you dont pull the shaft out of the cv joint like i did. some people may not like flexing the springs like that, but i dont see why it would matter |
