The inner seal is almost a press fit. It will come off the a little gentle persuasion on the back of the seal with a brass hammer. I just redid all of my brakes, bearings, and seals. I do not reuse the seals, I replaced them. A brass drift pin is the method I used for putting the new ones on...
I, too, had gas drip into my ear while removing an engine from a VW. The pain was intense, and had the same hospital vist.
I always wear ear protection when working around cars and trucks. That was an experience I do not want to re-live.

Thanks for your...
Ray,
Do you have to thin the HD paint or can you spray it right from the can? I have an airless and will go over the truck front to back, top to bottom, in the spring and and wanted to use the HD 383 color. Did you by it in semi-gloss or flat?
My 2cents worth. I admire your sense of adventure and wish you all the best. I skimmed over the other posts and a few additional items as food for thought.......
Heated socks!
Tire chains,
CB radio,
Hand head radio,
Weather radio.
Would nitrogen in the tires be a consideration even with...
