Help!!! CV axle replacemnt - Removing differential seal 850 1993

posted by  someone claiming to be paulfr on  Mon Oct 29 04:58 CST 2007 [RELATED]

I am replacing both CV axles on the 93 850. My problem is the damn differential seal won't come out. Is there a special tool? I've been advised to use a screwdriver and small block to get behind the seal and lever it our but this
doesn' seem to work and I'm nervous cuz the diff is aluminum & if scratched the tranny is screwed. Has anyone any experience in getting the seal out. I've been at it and am very frustrated. Can i just take a needel-nosed vice grip and tear the seal up and yank it out? Is the 93 am exception that the seal stays in & shouldn't be replaced???

help me I'm failing
