rear diff seals
I think I'm gonna tackle this tomorrow. Do you guys thing I'll be able to remove the CV axle bolts (at the flange) and have the CV flex downward a few inches in order to get access to the center flange bolt ? In other words, do I have a shot at doing this w/o removing the axle completely ? I don't think anyone has done this before and I can't find it in the Bentley. I'm thinking it's going to be similar to the prop shaft seal. Once the axle is out, I'm not sure how I'm going to be able "lock" the flange in order to get the bolt out. Maybe a strap wrench while I back it out with an impact. Any thoughts ?

I believe they dropped my rear end when they did my seals
I would see if I could do that and replace all three seals, they only replaced the two back seals when they did my car.
