You should be able to do it just by pulling the axle-shaft out then prying the seal out and replacing it.

It's pretty simple really.

You just need to remove:

Wheel.
Locking hub.
Edit: Brake Caliper. (Almost forgot that one...)
Spindle nuts. (Don't forget the pin first if you have auto hubs!)
Rotor/Wheel bearings.
Spindle. (It's probably stuck. Be careful not to damage it removing it)
Axle-Shaft (Yes it'll slide thru the hole in the knuckle. It's just VERY close.)
Axle-Shaft seal.

Re-assembly is reverse order. Be sure to use the torque specs. :-)

Obviously have it supported properly for this, Etc.

Thank you i got it out and how can i tell if my wheel bearing are bad ?
 
Uhh, I usually tell by excess heat or wobble when fully assembled. If it's really bad though it should be visible on the spindle or the rollers in the bearings, or by wobble in the rotor after torquing the spindle nuts...

There's probably a better way, but IDK what it would be..
 
Yeah one is bubbly so i should replace them thanks for all ur help
