had a good day here in the northeast so figured I get my seal done leaking bad soaking the breaks so I alotted six hours read the TM's and members post's got started had a friend help with the tire and drum everything was going great. Then the seal retainer!!!! had my big slide hammer with me no dice banged that thing till Iam soar used my torch no luck had to rig my two jaw puller and heat the snot out of the axle and it finally popped. hard to see in the picture but the puller is bending the 3/4 inch rachet was using a two foot breaker bar to apply the force on the puller.

When you pull down both sides you can knock out the seal holder from the other side with a 6' long small round bar, right through the hole in the cross pin.
