front oil seals / differental

I need to replace the seals and wanted to know if anyone makes a tool to spread the housing without removing the passenger side leaf spring.

Have you tried cleaning the VENT and VENT-HOSE to see if that would dry up the leaks ??

It usually does.

carrier

you can get those out with 2 prybars against the opposing ring gear bolts, they will go back in with a heavy rubber mallet "walking" it tapping the races.
