har-vey Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 just pull it out, then make sure you dont bend the new one putting it in. they can stick (i managed to snap 2 screw drivers getting mine out) just use a lever bar and you'll pull it out Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StuDoc 72 Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 Flick it out with a screwdriver. Quick rub of the surface with some emery paper to clean away corrosion. Wipe down with a rag. Put some oil on the new seal to help it slip in. Position it in place. Place a socket of similar size over it and gently tap it in place with a small hammer. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Fozzie Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 I used a pickaxe to lever mine out, it's crude but it worked haha Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Buy a new oil seal. After you take them out they are fucked. They cost peanuts. Do it right do it 1ce. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
weddy1988 Posted June 20, 2013 Author Share Posted June 20, 2013 just seen your post stu, ...will give toyota a call jsut now before the closecheers buddy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted June 20, 2013 Share Posted June 20, 2013 I just done mine yesterday. Its exactly as Stu said, and theyre 20 quid from idworkz for the pair. Mine were solid in the box, used a lever bar. You could chap them on with a 36mm socket but i used a 6'' 3/8 extension and hit them in 12 oclock, 6,3,9 etc. so they went in even.

daniel_g Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Aww i didnt know it was you haha. Yeah i thought it would prob be best to replace them just incase. The box should be sound, was sold to me as a good box by a lad on here. They are tight in, i had to use a large lever to do mine. Stuck my GT in for a MOT by the way Ross, small list of silly things so hopefully get them sorted and a retest by midweek Quote Link to post Share on other sites
weddy1988 Posted June 21, 2013 Author Share Posted June 21, 2013 i should have listend haha , everyone is going on about levers and pick axe's , there jsut silly wee bits of rubber arent they lol :|? this is the state of mines after trying to pick it outhttp://s252.photobucket.com/user/weddy1988/media/null_zpsef34ce52.jpg.html'>http://s252.photobucket.com/user/weddy1988/media/null_zpsd40344a1.jpg.html'>its liek there almost superglued in place on my old box lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
daniel_g Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 You need to get in behind that bit and pop it out. Theyres a fair bit of metal in them too, the NS one is a bit harder to do than the OS one i found, because it goes in a bit deeper i think. Theyre right wedged in man haha.

weddy1988 Posted June 21, 2013 Author Share Posted June 21, 2013 so there not all rubber theres metal ?, so its more than likely then metal i'm down to when scraping the rubber off...so put the pry bar on the inside of the box and pry them out rather than going from the outside trying to put up the lip ?

daniel_g Posted June 21, 2013 Share Posted June 21, 2013 Yeah thats right. Id say its about 10mm deep you need to go. If you get a pry bar just on the inner lip and pry against the box. It should pop out then. Or wait till your new one comes so you know what youre up against lol. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
StuDoc 72 Posted June 22, 2013 Share Posted June 22, 2013 Jus stick a plain screwdriver behind that pink bit and pry it out mate. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
