Question

My boots are actually in very good shape, no cuts at all. I might treat the rubber while I'm under there. Manfred (the man!) at H&M replaced one axle for me about 4 years ago when it failed due to a bad boot. Do I need to remove the axles from the hubs to change the seal at the driveshaft or can I just lower the differential with the axles attached and do it. The manual is pretty sketchy/few photos.

Should I think about changing the rear transmission mount or is that a real PITA?

I've never messed with the driveshaft either before. Is the flexdisc and bearing stuff worth the hassle? My flexdiscs actually look and feel pretty solid for being 20 years old but maybe they've petrified... :
