I have been doing a lot of research on my leak, it's coming from the output shaft on the passenger side by the PTU. While researching online I watched a video of someone replacing the driver side and assumed the process would be the same for the passenger side, well I was wrong. I ended up calling my local dealership to get the parts, I wanted to make sure I was buying the correct ones. I ended up buying the kit DB5Z-7275-B and the oil seal 7T4Z-7R284-A. Upon further investigation and irritation it appears I need special tools to remove and install but I am having issues finding out which tools I need. I haven't even been able to remove the dust shield yet but to be honest I wasn't trying very hard because I'm still uncertain about reinstalling everything. Does anyone know of a walkthrough for this job or steer me in the right direction for the tooling needed? I believe I need the following parts but one website says it's for my vehicle and another says it's not.

308-125 bearing cup remover (I'm just planning to use a slide hammer)
205-883 PTU linkshaft seal installer (Not sure if this is for my vehicle)
205-882 PTU dust shield installer (Not sure if this is for my vehicle)

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
