FRONT DIFFERENTIAL HELP

Dear Expeditioners, I have a question for the experts, I have searched the site but did not find a clear post about the front differential.
Expy 2006 Eddie, AWD, I have replaced the front differential seal on the passenger side already at the end of the tube. Now I need to replace the seal on the driver's side ( shorter shaft. I need clarification from the experts.)
Replacing the seal on the driver's side is the same procedure as the passenger's side ?
I did read the manual , it appears to be the same. All I need is a new seal and a new circlip washer just like I did on the passenger side.
Is this correct ?
Can someone clarify ? I am sure someone out there has done the driver's side before.
Below is a picture of the front drive from my manual.

Yes, the procedure is the same with the only notable difference is the shaft being shorter.
