Phil,
You have it. Remove the bolts that are visible around the stub axle and it slides right out. Nothing will fall out become damaged inside. There may or may not be shims between the stub axle retainer and the third member. Save them and put them back if it has them.
The seal isn't that difficult. It isn't pressed on. There are some Utubes on how to do it and the ERA guys have part of the Jag service manual in the owners pages that should show it. If you are good enough with your tools to get this far I wouldn't be to scared.
I think you have already done the hard part.
The really short version of installing the seal is unscrew the nut; remove the old seal; put the new seal on and tighten the nut. A few more things to watch, but not a big deal.
Once you get the stub axle out and look at the manual, let me know if you have any specific questions and I will answer them.
Send me a PM if you are stuck and I will give you my number.
Also, inspect your O ring that will be visible when the stub axle is removed. Make sure it is still pliable and not cut. They leak there to.
