Subject:Axle Flange Seals
From:joe trussell

Hello,

I've separated my transmission from the 1.9 and am replacing the axle flange
seals.

Those seals are in there TIGHT.  Besides buying a seal puller, is there any
other trick that might get them out?

I've seen a few examples where screws are drilled into the seal on opposite
sides, then a couple of pairs of pliers are used to pull it out.  I'm a bit
leery of this because obviously I don't want to scratch those outside walls.

I appreciate the help!
