do you have to do the front when you do the rear? I remember reading something about greasing pinion seals? also the other forum they say to fill it till its coming out of the fill hole, so you basically fill it up until it is overflowing out?

If anything just search for a DIY guide on youtube, thats what I did when I wanted to know how. It's really not all that hard to change just the fluid, it's changing out the ring and pinion and stuff like that which gets complicating.
