Surgeons sells the 8-sided hub nut wrench at a great price. Make sure you
don't buy the one for the late octagon knockoffs as there seem to be 2
wrench designs out there.

You can use pieces of pvc pipe to drive the seal out and the new one in.
I've written up some info on seal & bearing replacement available at--

Hylomar works great on either side of the paper gaskets under the axle
flanges.

Suggest you drain your axle first so the fluid doesn't leak out on your
drums--suggest removing them before pulling the axle halves.
