Yes, I would recommend you change out the differential seals. Rolling the dice and not changing them out bit me in the butt when working on my friends GX470. After replacing the CV axles, we noticed one of the axle seals was leaking so we had to do all the work over again to remove the CVs to access the seals.

Watch this video and it will give you mostly everything you'll need to know. The parts are listed in the video description along with the tools used.





But, for the seal insertion, you should watch this video we did on a GX470. We feature an awesome tool made by the Wit's End company that makes the seal insertion easy and foolproof.
