driver's side axle seal removal & GC+AGX question

[Peter Serwe]

There's a fairly inexpensive tool called a 'seal puller'.

Looks like a curved top 'T' with slightly different
sized sides.  Costs about $3 from harbor frieght,
or around $30 from Napa.  Autozone might be
able to lend you one.

To install the GC collars on AGX struts, you'll have to grind
a considerable amount off the tops.  I used a bench grinder
and had someone dumping water on them to cool them as
I did it.  If you overheat them, the seals will blow, and
you'll have a worthless set of struts, albiet with GC collars.
