Replacing Rear Half Shafts and Seals on 2006
Hello,
I have a 2006 and discovered one of the passenger side rear shaft boots is leaking and the driver side shaft seal at the differential is leaking. Is this something i can do myself? I can do brakes, tie rods, etc. Does anyone know of a step by step on the internet on doing it? I don't have a manual and for this car i have typically been able to find enough info on the internet to do my repairs. But i can't find a thing on how to pull these shafts and replace the seals.
The local rear end place wants to just replace the shaft with the bad boot. He says replacements are $160 a piece American made plus labor. I'm not clear on if the replacements are rebuilt or new though. I'd like to save a couple of bucks. Anyone familiar with this?
Thanks,
Dave
