The rear end is coming apart anyways to put the 4.10's in.... It's very cheap insurance compared to a rear end rebuild if they go out..

Like I said, it's cheap insurance... Can't go wrong with new parts anyways..When people start cheaping out on parts, is when stuff start to break on their car and they start wondering why.

you don't need to do them, but you will have the whole thing apart.
If you do, make sure the surface that touches the seal is free of rust.
