You have to remove the driveshaft, and with an air impact remove the large nut, there's the seal.
It is possible the seal is just worn out but check the driveshaft u-joints. If a u-joint is bad it could cause the driveshaft to wobble putting extra strain on the rear seal.
Remove driveshaft,remove pinion nut that holds the driveshaft yoke on. Then remove the yoke and the seal will be behind the yoke.To pull the seal you need a seal puller or you could use a couple of screwdrivers to pry it out of the axle housing. Install seal & asm in reverse order.
u will need appropriate wrench to remove driveshaft you will then need a seal puller to pull old seal. then you need a hammer to tap new seal into place. then same wrench to reinstall driveshaft
You could remove the transmission and pour it out of the rear driveshaft seal. But I would recommend dropping the pan.
Remove the you joint and driveshaft. Remove the rear end seal plate. Remove the seal and bearing. Reverse the process to install the new seal.
Disconnect the driveshaft, unbolt the yoke, pry out the seal, hammer in the new one with an appropriate sized driver. Oh, yeah... drain the transmission oil first.
The seal should run about 10 dollars or less. The mechanic shouldn't charge more than 40 dollars or so. It is a pretty easy job. Buy the seal, remove the driveshaft, knock the seal out, replace it with the new one and reinstall the driveshaft. Piece of cake. good luck.
u have to pull the driveshaft knock out the seal and install a new one, but if it is leaking the bushing needs to be replaced and u would need a bushing driver to install it. u can purchace a seal and bushing kit but the bushing is harder to replace
Seal gone! Remove driveshaft pull seal out, check shaft for damage/wear. Refit new seal and rebuild
its on the output shaft , where the driveshaft connects to the transmission
Remove the driveshaft, take a flat head screwdriver and a hammer and knock the old seal out. then carefully use a rubber hammer to install the new seal. Macs Transmissions (Houston, TX) 281-394-4951 macstransmissions@gmail.com
