You need the correct press tool to get the new seal in, you can take it out with a small pry bar or screwdriver.
The only hard part is you have to support the rear diff with a jack and lower it down about 4-5 inches so you can pull the axle shaft out.

Alternatively, if it is a small leak, you can just check the differential fluid once a year and top up
