Hi,

The tool you need to remove and replace the "rope" seal "in the truck" is called a SNEEKY PETE. It is kinda a corkscrew on the end of a wire. I too agree that you should now go with the 2 piece neoprene seal. However, if you have excess clearance on the rear journal, nothing will stop it from leaking.

Good Luck
