Usually the bearing carrier has to be removed to replace those seals. I have come up with a cheat though. Drill two small holes in the metal part of the seal, 180 degrees apart. be careful not to scratch the shaft. run a small screw in each hole. take two pairs of pliers and grab each screw and pull the seal out. Repeat this process with the second seal. to install the new seals get a piece of pipe the same diameter as the seal and a little longer than the propshaft and drive them in one at a time until they seat.
