A:
If only replacing the left side seal, you should place an alignment mark between the inner axle shaft and the wheel drive shaft. If servicing the 8.25-inch axle, you should remove the shock module. Then you need to disconnect the wheel drive shaft from the inner axle shaft, remove the inner axle shaft using a hammer and a brass drift and remove the inner axle shaft seal using a suitable seal remover tool.
