2002 F-150 Gear Oil Leak

My 2002 F-150 XLT SuperCab with the 8 foot bed and RWD has a gear oil leak. Is there a way to fix it without buying a new rear end and without breaking the bank?

Most or all of those "special tools" can be rented from popular auto parts stores.
When I did mine I put a deposit down on the tools and got it back when I returned the tools. This might vary from store chain to store chain or area.
