axle seal change

I have been reading here for the past few minutes. Basically my drivers side rear axle seal is leaking.

To change this, all I have to do is pull the wheel, drum, diff cover, "C" clip. Pull the axle, change the seal and reverse it, correct? Is that all there is to it? Any big steps that I am missing?

Nope basically thats about it. Not that tough. Little advice with the spiders if you have an open diff. Is when you pull them out be careful to leave them in place in the diff. Its kind of a PITA to get them back in. I had a 2nd person help me put them in but thats just to get an extra hand in turning the axle shaft to walk the gears in.

Thanks! I have an auburn pro in the rear, so it should be pretty easy to do. We shall see.
