Input Shaft rear differential seal

[Farmallmilitary]

Well I am fixing a few leaks on the truck (m925a1) and right now I am attempting to do the diff input and output seals. The output seals are easy as they don't require you to remove anything except the nut and flange. The input seals are much harder and I can't figure out how to get to the seal. The input seals require you to take off the thru shaft. I looked in the tms and previous threads but none show you how to do the input shaft seal. Only the output seal. Has anyone done this before and if you did how? Here are some pictures of the shaft and the seal.

Are these what are referred to as the pinon seals on these axles?

Yes these would be the pinion seals.

I am using timken seals. The number is 416654. They worked great on the output shafts and according to the TMs they are they same for the input pinion seal.

Anybody know how to change the seal?

Anybody? Do I need to press it out.

I replaced seals on my M52A2 a few years ago .The cover with the seal should just need to be taped off the part that hold the bearing should just be a gasket between them.

Maybe this helps .

Yes, that does help. I didn't realize the housing split apart like that. Thank you!
