Review on 710495 Transfer Case Output Shaft Seal for Coast to Coast by Eric Basler

Lord the following user was right takes the power of all gods known to man! To remove this seal, I gave up the flathead screwdriver method. Instead, I used a slide hammer. I screwed in the threaded connection between the lip seal and the gasket and attached a hammer then it went to town, it took more force than I thought it would, so I can imagine a way of removing the paint with a screwdriver or chisel. In addition, the installation was also a bit tedious, the thing just wanted to go in wrong. I finally managed to work this out with some old gears I had laying around and a hammer oh god getting a crossbeam hammer is torture I guess if you have to do the job yourself get one a slide hammer and save yourself the headache. You may also want to get a quart of transfer case fluid as you will lose at least a pint after removing the gasket. I then went for a test ride and the gasket seems to be holding with no leaks, looks like a solid gasket so I hope I don't have to climb back in.
