Remove rear end inspection plate and remove spider gear pin and small spider gears and the push in on axel and remove U clips on end of axel.
Remove wheels and brake drum and pull the axel out.
Then you will see the rear axel seals. Pop the old ones out with a pry bar or large screw drive or exc.
Then take a flat seal driver and drive in the new ones.
and put it all back together.
While the axels are out look at the bearing surface on them. If worn out or ruff or cut up you may need a axel saver axel bearing.
And check and/or clean greese off of rear brake shoes and drums.

It is a one year online sub from all data that will lead you threw it. And also has all of the other repair info.
Also type in auto zone on a web search they sometimes have some info of it.
