Things go bad just sitting......front axle seal

[ftwflh]

Jeep been sitting most of the winter.Backed it out of the garage today and seen oil on right front tire.Closer look it was the axle seal.
What is the best way to change this seal out?

This should get you headed in the right direction. Good Luck!

You have to take the axles out and you also need to take the ring gear/carrier out. The seal is in the center section next to the carrier bearings.
