Begin by removing the driveaxle from the vehicle and securing it in a vise with protective lining to prevent damage.

Return the driveaxle assembly to the automotive machine shop to have the axle mounting bracket and new seal installed, along with pressing on the bearing, ensuring a new seal is used even if the old bearing is being reused.

For Dana rear axles, begin by loosening the rear wheel lug nuts, raising the vehicle, and securing it on jackstands. Remove the rear drum brake shoes or caliper and disc, disconnect the parking brake cable, and detach the axleshaft bearing retainer by removing four nuts. Use a slide hammer and puller attachment to remove the axleshaft, followed by the brake backing plate. Take the axleshaft and bearing retainer assembly to an automotive machine shop for replacement of the collar, bearing, and seal, then reinstall in reverse order, ensuring proper torque on the bearing retainer and wheel lug nuts.
