You might need an open ended 17mm spanner to stop the caliper slide from turning while you are undoing the caliper bolt if you decide to remove the caliper and cradle in 2 pieces. A flat screw driver to push the piston back like Rusty said is a winner too, just don't push it too far coz you will push the fluid out of the brake master cylinder and you'll have to poor water of it straight away coz brake fluid peels paint. Putting the wheel under the car like TD said is a very smart idea, coz you will have the jack stand under the diff if for any reason that slips having the wheel under the rear door will make sure you don't wear a wheel arch for a hat :)
If there is anything else make let me know so i can walk you thru ....
Cheers big ears , will be sure to ask if I run into problems. Rusty popping over so should be ok.

I'll bring my trolley jack, stands and impact. Will probably be a 20 minute job all up.

Big thanks to Russ for all you done today, another champion bloke.
Found a definite leak once the wheel was off, so off came the calliper, then the rotor, pulled out the axle and found a small cracked on the Inner seal now replaced and no more diff oil smell.
Pictures to follow once friggin MC decides to play ball again

Look carefully and you'll find the small offending split in the inner seal........ Cost a whole $8 for a replacement one from Repco.

Little syringe and Straw device Rusty came up with in order to repack the bearings with grease after the diff oil was cleaned out of them.
(A PIC SHOULD BE HERE BUT THIS CRAPPY APP HAS CRAPPED ITSELF YET AGAIN AFTER THE THIRD REINSTALL THIS EVENING)
Nice work mate! See it wasn't that hard after all aye?
Not hard when you know what you're doing, which I don't. So very thankful to Russ as he did everything and explained stuff on the way. I was a very good supervisor who supplied coffee and beer lol.
But I now know what to do when the need arises.

Good outcome clunk and posts. Good to know us trolsters stick together so nice work too Rusty.
I always get concerned that if I strip something down and need a part that can't be gotten quickly I'll be rooned. So very happy for you clunk that mr repco had the goods.
Thanks guys.

you keepin an eye on that wheel bearing buddy?
no noise?
hub not hot to touch after a drive? (warm is fine HOT is bad)
no smells?
just remember the gear oil washed out all the grease and we got in what we could without pressing the bearing out.
Haven't had chance to go on a long run yet. All good so far Russ but thinking I might strip it down again and have a go at getting some more grease in there either this weekend or the weekend after. Need to get myself organised to drop the atf and transfer case oil too. Just waiting on a certain fathers day present ;)
Don't slap it, tap it!!!!
if i got time i can give you a hand again.
i got a little 4by trip to moore river 25th 26th moore river so those days are out
