Your prolly going too tear up the seals trying to pull them off. So go ahead and buy some new ones.

You will mess up the base of the seal, if they have been run at all. Just buy new ones, they are not that expensive.

We do not suggest re-using the seals. Give us a call and we can get you a new set to you for around $20.00 with shipping. The investment will be well worth it.
