Hello Sunbeams,
Has anyone had success changing the rear axle hub oil seals (Series Rapier), without having access to the special tools?
The manual says tool number RG 188-B 9 (a variety of puller) is required to remove the hubs, in order to replace the seals.
I'll ask the question on the Facebook page as well.

Thank you.

Terry

I guess I'm the only one who doesn't have the Special Rootes Group Tool then.
Anyway I found a post on the SAOCA that used an old hub and assorted nuts and bolts instead of the dedicated tool. Worked a treat. No more messy wheels.
