if it is the seal, you will have to remove the caliper and rotor, remove the differential cover and remove the bolt and pin inside the diff carrier housing. push in the axle and remove the axle clip and pull out the axle use a seal puller or prybar to remove seal reverse the steps to assemble
SOURCE: REAR AXLE SEAL LEAKING ONTO BRAKE SHOES NEED INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO FIX
Jack up vehicle and support on stands. Remove wheels. Remove differential cover . Locate and remove lock pin that holds cross shaft in. Slide cross shaft out. Push axle inward to release axle c clip. Remove axle and pry out old seal. Install new seal with proper tool.Add some lube to the seal lip to aid axle intallation. Revese removal procedure. This is for a "c" type axle.
Another type has 4 nuts attaching a retainer plate to the backing plate behind the axle flange. In this case the 4 nuts are removed and the axle will come out. This may require a little effort. I think that you have a "c" type axle in your vehicle. Hope this helps. Moe

Step 1, DO NOT follow the advice in Soultion #1.
You have to remove the axles to get to the bearing. If it's a C-Clip Dana 35C differential, remove the wheels and brake calipers and the 4 bolts holding the brake backing plate to the axle tube,remove the diff cover, drain the fluid, pull the C-Clip and remove the axle with a slide hammer or with the brake rotor put back on the wheel studs backwards. Dana 35C diffs the wheels bearings will stay in the axel tubes, go to Auto Zone and rent a bearing remover. If its a Dana 35 diff, take the axle to a machine shop and have the bearing pressed off and a new seal installed the have the bearing pressed back on.
