Yep. Road-salt is a vehicle killer!
...if you need to replace the front-seal on the gearbox it is highly likely that you may need to replace a bearing or two as well, i.e a major gearbox overhaul...
It happens (extremly rare) that that seal fails, and if that would be the case - that's the way to change it
When overhauling the gearbox (about 100 000km intervalls), one do change all seals and bearings. Pitted sprockets should also be replaced.
