Blasterdad 3,044 #1 Posted April 7, 2017 Finished the "new" C-81 last night, last on the list was to replace an axle seal, all went well... Now on to finishing the 48" deck for the C-120... Pics of my "seal installation tool", cut the bottom off an old hard rubber table leg cap, & tapered the end a little on the bench grinder. Slid the new seal in place & pushed into seat evenly with fingers, butted new "tool" to it, used a plastic extension tube from my shop vac & one good tap with a rubber mallet drove it home. Worked great! 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
