Default Re: Rear Axle Seal in Bell

John, thanks for the pics. I did get the old seals out with a long screw driver. They came out in 4-pieces. I decided to take the bells down and put them in the hot tank over night and will pic them up in the morning. I made up a seal driver out of a piece of 3/4" black iron pipe and a 1'X3/4" bell. The seal shell measures 1.834 and I sanded the bell down to 1.810 so it should work just fine. I will put the seal in place with the pipe and then use a piece of tubing to hold the seal in place and pull the pipe out then install the bell on the end of the pipe and drive the seal into place.
