Section J.5 of the Healey Workshop Manual for 100-6 and 3000 describes
removal and replacement of the pinion oil seal. The text calls for
the withdrawal of the pinion flange and pressed end-cover with Service
Tool 18G2 (extractor for driving flange). I want to replace the oil
seal. Of course I don't have too 18G2. My inspection of the exploded
rear axle graphic in the manual suggests that if I remove flange nut
and washer I can probably tap the flange off with careful use of a
small hammer. Am I correct? To get to the oil seal the next step
will be removal of the oil seal housing. Can someone offer a
suggestion on accomplishing this step? It is the "pressed" term that
causes concern. Thanks.
