Default Rear Axle Seal

Have to replace the seals in my rear axle soon. Any tips on how to make it easier?

It's a fairly simple job anyways pop the diff take out the clips (long flat head with a hammer)
Pop out the axles change the seals and pop them back in should take about an hour from start to finish

But on the other hand if your luck is like mine you'll be sitting there for a good hour just to get the clips off the axles haha

I would recommend at the very least a six pack just to keep the stress down and a radio with your favorite station haha

No all kidding aside it's easy you'll be fine
