    Can get a cartridge for around $5.

    Many thanks for your help

    A big thank you for all the advice on this topic, I had a look at RAVE, the procedure there follows the advice, Odd as RAVE tends to complicate matters. One query, RAVE states to lubricate the oil seal lip and the running surface, the oil seal lip is the outer part? It make sense to ease fitting, but I haven't done one of these so I am just checking.

    Little bit won't hurt. I sprayed the sleeve with a little ATF second time I did mine. I wanted to stop the lip from folding back. And yes, the lip is the bit you'd think it is.

    ok, I get the lip part, what is the running surface? the bit next to the lip?

    The lip was folded by the axle, not the tool.

    The lip can catch here, but don't overthink it. I've done a lot of this sort of thing, and the folding over thing has only happened once. It's just a PITA cos you don't expect it.

    If I was doing this job I would put a big smear of grease around the seal contact area.

    You put the seal in backwards?
