rear diff to axle leak

I just found that my DS rear axle is leaking oil at the rear differential.
Looks like a couple of bolts get the flange off... is it really that easy.

I'm used to American cars where the diff's are a crush-sleeve, snap ring nightmare.

i cant think of a rear end that you have to take the pinion out to pull a axle? but yea its that simple pull axle and replace seal...
