It looks like my front diff pinion seal is starting to leak.
Any advice on how to replace that seal?

Remove front driveshaft. Take off wheels and calipers. measure rotational torque, remove weird round yoke. Replace seal. It won't want to leave probably. Seal puller was a little too sharp of a point on it, peeled through the crappy light metal around the seal. Put new seal in with a big socket so it goes in evenly, torque back to where the rotational load was that you measured. Put back on driveshaft. Someone else can chip in with a crush sleeve. I don't remember replacing one, but i may have. it's been a while.
