Leaking rear axle seals
I have a 1965 Chevy pickup and the rear seals are leaking. Can anyone help with how to replace the seals? I thought the axles could be just pulled out but it looks like I have to remove the rear end housing to remove the axles. Any help would be appreciated.

You need to open the rear end/remove the pin in the center of the back ,by taking out a bolt that holds the pin in.Then once the pin is out ,you need to push the axel towards the center of truck and there is a c shaped washer holding the axel in.then the axel will pull right out.

Thanks for the help I will start on that this weekend. The way you explained it's pretty simple I hope.
Thanks

The gears on the pin need to come out too,you just simply rotate the carrier,wheels off ground.
