Rear Main Seal - Manual Trans
#1

I have seen several threads about replacing the rear main seal on the 5.2L motor with an auto trans, however I have the manual and 4WD. My question is can the same procedure be followed, not having to pull the front axle as the Haynes manual suggests? This is the procedure I was going to follow:

I have a definite leak, oil dripping from between the pan and down along the bellhousing of the transmission. I am planning to replace the oil pan gasket, oil pump and rear main seal. I don't want to have to raise the motor or remove the front axle if possible, but I don't want to get into this and find out that is what I have to do. Does anyone have experience with this?
