Default 752 driveshaft seal replacement?

My 5 speed 752 box looks like it's leaking oil from the driveshaft, not the driveshaft boot, the seal that sits in the gearbox. Do these simply pull out or do I need to unscrew and remove the bearing preload cap?

Cheers,

Wayne.

If it's anything like a 6 speed (and many other gearboxes) the seal's just pressed in.

If your box is fitted with stub axles it may be easier to remove the diff side retainer (carefully noting how many turns to remove) and also replace the retainer o-ring at the same time.
