Hi Mike,
It's been a while since I worked on my car's rear seal leak, but I
think the seal was pretty easy to remove once the flange was off. More
importantly in my case, I did the job twice as a new seal did not fix
the leak. I ended up using a Speedi-Sleeve to provide a new sealing
surface on the flange. I think I just measured the diameter and got
one at Napa rather than ordering from one of the usual suspects. Not
cheap, but something to consider while you are doing this job...
