I got EXTREMELY lucky, just replaced my axles seals in the 2000 70 and didn't need a spreader, just unbolted the carriers and slid the assembly out.

Seals are a pain to get in if you don't have a puller.

Some carriers are much tighter than others. Usually if you can't get them out with a prybar on the top, and one underneath its time for the spreader.
