Note: The drive oil seals can be replaced without removing the gearbox from the vehicle.
Warning! Left and right drive seals are not interchangeable (catalog numbers: right oil seal - 2108-2301034, 2110-2301034 or 2110-2301034-01; left oil seal - 2108-2301035, 2110-2301035 or 2110-2301035-01).
Warning! Do not remove both drives at the same time, or, if necessary, install a special mandrel instead of one of them to prevent the side gears from falling out of the differential box.
Removing
1. We prepare the car for work (see "Preparing the car for maintenance and repair").
2. Drain the oil from the gearbox (see "Gearbox - oil change").
3. We take out the drive (see "Front wheel drive - removal and installation").
4. Prying the stuffing box with a large slotted screwdriver, or a mounting spatula, remove it from the gearbox housing.
Installation
We lubricate the working edge of the new oil seal with gear oil and press it in, using the old oil seal as a mandrel.
The second wheel drive seal is replaced in the same way.
