They're not hard to replace, but you will need a couple of things. One is a dremel with a flexible shaft or a 90 degree adapter. You have to drill a small hole into the seal and there just isn't enough room to get a conventional drill in there. While Beav has had success using a pick to pull the seals out using the freshly drilled hole, I had no such luck. They were on way too tight for the pick to be of any use. Instead, I use a very small screw and a couple of different pry bars to pull the seals out.
