Use the search tool under 3rd Gen's - you'll find all kinds of information, including different methods of replacement, etc.

I did mine last summer - wasn't to big of a deal. I did have to rent an electric lug wrench for the big nut after you remove the drive shaft. Just make sure to be very careful when you are tapping in the new seal so you don't damage it.
