Axle Seals
My axle seals have been leaking on my E99 F350 4x4.
Estimates from local repair shops run about $700 so I decided to do it myself.
following the thread on replacing ball joints I was able to reomove my hubs and axles.
Now I have to figure out how to get the old seals out. They are kind of deep into the axle tube.
I also need an idea of how to drive the new ones in.
Any one out there have any ideas?
Thanks.

Axle Seals
After pondering the issue for a while I see that I need to follow the guide and remove gears so I can install seals from inside.
More work than I had planned on but might as well do it right.
Still going to save me a lot of cash.
