Default Going rate for rear diff halfshaft seal replacement? Stage 3 shoppers, check my sig!

After 75kmi mine are starting to weep quite a bit.

STFA said ~2-3 shop hrs + seals (~$30). Is this others experience?

Thinking of doing it myself but don't have triple sq. drivers or the "special" seal instalation/removal tools, or the motivation to get messy on my cold garage floor.

By the way I got stuff for sale in the classifieds. Stock exhaust, suspension, ICs, downpipes I'll be listing shortly :-)

Default Yeah, reasons in my original post. None of em really good but...

If the price is right why not let a pro do it. I definitely don't want to do it twice if the seal leaks from a poor install. Probably see if ASP will since they're closer to me than the dealer.
