I was looking under my truck to see if there was a drain plug on the front differential, which there is not as far as i can tell, and i noticed the drivers side was leaking where the cv joint plugs into the diff housing.
Anyone ever pulled that out of there? I am sure the seal is only like $25 and i want to change the oil in there anyways so if anyone has done that before and would tell me what I need to do to pull the shaft or axle or whatever you call it out of the differential housing I would appreciate it.
I found a Timken differential bearing/seal kit for $65 at autozone. any thoughts on that? would that be bearings and seals for the drive shaft and both cv axles? if so i may do that if possible. I just need to know how to get the drive shaft and the axles out of the differential.
