My front diff does not have a removable pinion seal flange. Can the seal be removed without removing the ring and pinion assembly? I've tried using heat and a slide hammer to no avail. The seal seems to be one of those metal and leather ones. I can't really pry it as the pinion is in the way.
If I have to remove the R&P, is it just a matter of removing the 4 bearing cap bolts? My green bible is silent on this. Any idea on the torque value for these cap bolts?
