It isn't a difficult job, it just takes some time. Be careful and read the tech manual. Search on here. There have been several good threads about seal and bearing work with very helpful pictures.

Hey, Jawentz57, where did you get your seals and flange gasket? What are the part numbers? Thanks

Get your self a piece of 3" pvc to put over the spindle when u slide the hub on! Mkes it alot easier and no risk of damage!!
