I got me a leak.  Damn, I hate leaks.

How hard is it to change drive flange seals on an AGB? 
 Can I do it without removing the half shafts?

It's not so bad, if you have or fabricate a tool for the CV flanges. The toughest part is getting the C clips back on.

This is a perfect time for the Peloquin 80% upgrade, it comes with 2 new flange seals, and the tool that you need to compress the CV flange spring.

The tool uses a 10mm x 1.5 threaded rod with a nut, that threads into the diff./axle stub and works against the CV flange.
