Well I just got the okie out the hole. As it turns out the seal was in the right way but the seal is still in the hole. The seal is old and brittle i can get to within 3 inches of the end of the tube but no further. Working with a hook I fashioned from a coat hanger i have been picking out pieces of the brittle seal and have got out the circular spring that supports the seal lip. There is still an okie in the hole (from the last repair) and there is no room for the new okie and the old seal and the old okie. The seal has to come out or the old okie has to be driven in more. I will attempt to drive the okie in further tomorrow after I find a sutable pipe to beat on. Maybe it will bust the seal up and i can get it out. I have determined that you can only stack the okies 1 time if you try to drive the 3rd okie in then the first okie will come out the bottom side and rattle around in the tube untill it finds its way into the pinion bearing. SOOOO! Note to everyone; You can only stack the okies 1 time. More to come. James
