Diff pinion oil seal

[dreamin']

I need to replace rear diff pinion oil seal and drive flange.

Have removed the drive flange, and have a couple of questions:

Do I need to remove the oil seal retainer to replace the seal?

The flared mud shield seems to be attached to the drive flange - is it pressed on or just stuck?

Thanks

Roger

Yes; remove the seal housing to replace the seal.

The mud shield is pressed on,
