    How's it going y'all,

    My '21 Taco developed a weep on the driver side CV axle input into the diff, and I'm assuming I caught a rock or something after my last trail ride and tore the seal.

    I have a ECGS bushing already but I was wondering if anyone around the Charleston SC area had a tool I could borrow? The Charleston Off-road Facebook group said there was a swap thread but I can't find it.

    Thanks!PXL_20240928_205602137.jpg

    Hopefully you're able to find someone with the tools, I kept mine for this sort of reason.

    The seal install tools are more or less a bearring and race seal drivers in the specific sizes. You could possibly substitute the puller tool with a blind hole puller tool of the right diameter?

    Maybe, figured I'd ask to borrow one before just spending the money for a one time job.
