How do you change the front axle seal on a 1997 dodge 1500 4 x 4?

To change the front axle seal on a 1997 Dodge 1500 4x4, start by lifting the vehicle and removing the front wheel. Then, detach the brake caliper and rotor to access the axle assembly. Remove the axle nut and pull the axle shaft out of the differential, allowing you to access the seal. Use a seal puller to remove the old seal, clean the area, and then install the new seal, ensuring it's seated properly before reassembling the axle and brakes.
