Hi Guys, I got a bad leak from the passenger side diff seal.

What is the process for repair?

Pull out P/S drive shaft, remove that side casing and replace the seal?
Is it that easy?

And of course, recomended place of replaecment purchase from NW Melb

Thanks :)

Don't forget to drain oil first.

If the side plate bush is badly worn the new seal will flog out pretty quickly...

Cheers

However if you are just doing the seal, no need to remove side casing.
