Rear Pinion Seal

Hi!

The pinion seal is leaking on my SS. Has anyone replaced it? Is it like a solid rear where you have to take off the yoke and pry it out or is there more involved with it?

Car is out of warranty otherwise to the dealer it would go. I havent taken it to a shop yet but i was just curious.

Thanks!

Thanks!

Would you know of any causes to make the seal fail? Its brand new when i got the diff rebuilt. I was told its just a crap aftermarket seal and to get a GM seal.
