Its held in place with large castle nuts, locked by locking sheets. You need a special wrench to undo the castle nuts. costed me about 17 euro.
Then take out the axle stub and replace the seal.
Another thing that might be worth trying, is to get a small bottle of this seal and gasket cure for transmissions: Old oil seals get hard, and this oil additive helps to soften the seal so it will better adapt to the shape of the axle its wrapped around.
