I am new here so please bear with me. Is the axle shaft held with a c clip in the dif. Also when I lookup the seal there is options for 9.25 or 10.5. I would think it is the 9.25 but how can I tell? Is there a step by step guide to pulling the axel shaft and replacing the bearing and seal all I have found is gen 3 ram guides and videos and I do not know if they would basically work to a point and don't won't to go in totally blind and hope for the best. Any and all help and suggestions are welcomed and greatly appreciated.

Axle is held in by a C-clip. 1500 will have the 9.25. The procedure to replace them hasn’t changed in years. If you found a 3rd Gen video it will work.
