I got home this morning and looked under my jeep to find and oily liquid around the inside of the front passenger tire. Doesn't appear to be brake fluid. Could it be an axle seal? How hard will this to be replace? Is there a write-up on doing this?

 

GOOGLE knows all

Its not too bad

 

Are there any special tools I need to get the seal out or press it back in?

 

You know...it says right in the link he gave you...

 

Its easy to get it all apart and not to hard to get the seals out. Getting them in is a pain in the ***. Its a 2 person job, period. Also make sure you have a length or two of stout pipe and a socket to fit in the seal 33mm I think

 

i have never needed a second person...

 

I've never needed 2 people or any sort of lengthy of pipe. The easiest way to install the new seals is to make a small press out of piece of thread all, a couple of nuts and washers and then 2 pvc pipe reducers/adapters. On the pipe adapter the OD should fit in the seal and the ID should fit over the piece of thread all.

 

i did mine by myself as well. not too bad a job but does take some time. follow the directions and you will get it.
