Kent Moore tools are exploding wallet $....but in this case this RMS install tool was a $20 ebay find several years ago

I also got the KM LT1 damper install/removal tool for $60 at the time. That tool makes R&R of the hub plug & play. It even included the KM WP drive seal install tool

yeah the plastic sleeve that comes with the seal "works" and just taping the seal in with hammer also as long as you don't roll the lip installing the seal. The KM tool just makes it so easy if you can find one used for cheap like I did.

Yes it does. I too have one I bought for about that price from some shop going out of business. It has come in extremely handy.
