I am trying to figure out how to change my seal on the driver side input shaft on the front diff. It is leaking. I was told it should pop out with maybe a slight tug, but I tried and it seems to be in pretty good. Any help will be appreciated.
thanks

It wont just come right out, you will need to pop it out. They are driven in with a hammer, they are a tight fit in the diff housing

Is there anything I need to worry about when I pull it out? Such as a clip or anything?

Nope, just be careful driving it back in, you dont want to bend or damage it
