I searched around a bit but I can't find if there are any differences to the process to replacing the seals/bearings on the rear axle when it has the limited slip diff.

as far as the bearings so, rock auto has the bearings as high as $60 down to as low as $13. I am no bearing expert and I don't want to be doing this twice

thanks in advance for help

It's done. I was a little worried that the spring would get in the way of getting the "c" clips off of the axles but the only real problem I had was getting the parking brake back together. I found out that I need to pull apart and clean the slide pins on the service brakes and replace the dust boot on the right side.

another interesting thing I noticed is the right axle had markings on it. I suspect it's been replaced before.
