no need to pull the trans only the oil pan. i have not replaced mine yet and 100,000 is coming up soon (also just switched to synth. oil a few thousand ago) but lots of guys have done it.

do a search on 'rear main' or similar words and you'll likely find a wealth of info. also check out jeepin.com for a pretty good write-up with pics.
