  View original topic: Rear driveshaft oil seal

Fresh off utilizing this catspaw technique to pop out my final drive seals, I'm moving on to replacing the rear driveshaft oil seal the same way.

Question: Bentley shows an Oil Return Sleeve (6-17) beneath that seal, and I'm wondering if there's a chance of f!@*ing it up with a wayward drill bit gone too deep. Anyone?

Put a sleeve of small tubing on the drill so it doesn't go in too deep.
