Hi
Gotta replace a CV joint boot, is it much more work beyond this to replace the driveshaft oil seals. I am told thats what the drips of oil will be.
thanks

If you have some oil now, its likely you may have more when you remove the pot joint and refit it with out a seal change, while the whole joint is off do the seal, quite easy from underneath...
Hi GPT once you have the driveshaft out of the hub the inner pot joint just pops out with the aid of two large screwdriver type levers (1 either side) if you know what I mean, once the pot joint out of the diff, quickly run and get washing up bowl from the sink, as the engine oil will poor out, ;-) (as I forgot to mention,,, drain sump first) the oil seal is now visible and can be prised out quite easily, dead easy mate,,,,, have a go, Fitzy
would pay to check the gear selector oil seal, its an easy change and is often the cause of small leaks

I leave this one until it gets tooo serious, easy cheap way of keeping the front sub and under floor area rust free! :-)
