Here I show how I replace the axle seals in my 67 VW Beetle Wolfsfberg West www.wolfsburgw... EMPI Torque Multiplier: amzn.to/3zNwTaL Seal Driver: amzn.to/3UA9sdi
Show parts In kit layed out In order of assembly. Remove bearing carrier, remove old seal. Install new seal and bearing into carrier. Offer carrier to axle, slide on after installing gaskets and o rings. Prior to starting job, drain axle housing, then no more annoying drips during job.
Right on on keeping the axle on the horizontal; just put a jack under the shock absorber mount and lift it. It should minimize the gear oil hemorrhage, which is pretty annoying while trying to do this. Very strange that the wheel bearing came out; have never seen this. Also, the bearing covers changed throughout the years; some use the oil slinger washer and some don’t.
great video to help us old ( 94 yrs ) guys. ThanX❤

Any ideas if the spacer is stuck onto the axle?
Try to expand it with a torch. Or get some sort of puller at autozone.
Too slow, speak up!!!
