Default 2 problems

first my 4 low wont engage and 4 high works great, and the other is a leak coming from my front end where my front drive line meets the housing (pumpkin) im guessing theres a seal in there that needs replaced. anyone done it before? easy or difficult?

when you shift into 4 low you have to be stopped with your foot on the brake with the trans in neutral.

And the leak is your pinion seal. It's an easy fix, but it will leak again.
