Those look like the seals for the speedo drive unit, not the speedometer itself.

Thanks for the help! It turns out there was a metal washer above the seal that was stuck!! I got a small seal puller that popped the metal washer and seal out!!
I would have gotten McMarks fix but didn't have time. Poor planning on my part. I have a different thread on the transmission removal I will post my lessons learned. Below is the tool, seal and metal washer Regards James  |
