[QUOTE="mikauai, post: 437116, member: 20781"] Thanks for your input. Crawled farther under for a better look and I meant a seat for the seal. There a groove like space that made me think the seal used it as a stop, but I see now that it's a location line that shows the seal is all the way in the seat. I used a 36mm socket to drive the old seal out. Rubber seal is worn compared to new seal. Getting the new seal in is harder than it looks in the videos. Keeps going in crooked and has distorted the seal. I bought two initially and just went and picked up two more. Instead of the threaded rod/washer installer, I'm going to try using the threaded pin from my hub puller with washers from the inside of the CAD, and thread the pin into a coupler on the slide hammer shaft to give me a little more length to get the slide outside of the hub/knuckle. Hope it works [/QUOTE]
