Seal installer for axles

skylinedan · Jun 18, 2013

Any one have the P.N. for the OTC/ Rotundra tool that you use to install the seals behind the bearing hubs on a 03 SD front axle ? I,ve been on ebay looking but I don't have a P.N. to match up with the one listed for sale on there. Need one fast, don't have mine in yet so driving in the rain is a no no, LOL.

Found some on EBay last night, a little pricey but worth it. I've had a few guys ask me if I did the seals. All ways tell them no because I don't have the tool to install them.

:u can make one out of some rigid pipe, and end cap, and a floor flange. Thats what i did.

IIrc they are around $75. I didn't think that was to bad, especially considering they were like $400 when they first came out until otc made the 1 piece tool a couple years ago

I got one coming as we speak, have about 73 bucks in so I,m happy with that. I have the socket for the rear nut that holds the hubs on, mise well have one of these to add to the tool collection, LOL.
