i just did this myself about two weeks ago. but i have a 94 path so it might be a little different.
you can do the inner seal yourself but the outer one will need to by done by nissan or a machine shop because the whole bearing assbly needs to be pressed apart.
you will most likely need a slide hammer and a wheel adapter. you can rent this at pepboys or autozone.
to start take of the wheel and drum. then you will need to disconnect the e-brake cable. and push it back through the backing plate. you may need to take apart the whole brake to do this. then you will need unbolt the brake line from the backing plate. now unbolt the 4 bolts that hold the backing plate on to the axle tube. now attache the slide hammer to wheel studs and pull out the axle. next you will need to pull out the old inner seal and replace it with a new one. the seal is a pain to get out. now that the new seal is in you need to slide everything back into place and re hook everything up. you will also need to blead your brakes when this is over. it is also easier to drain your diff before you start to do this.
hopefully that will give you a good idea of what you have to do.
