  Q: How to replace the right front wheel drive shaft wheel seal on Chevrolet Lumina?

  A: The first step to replace the right front wheel drive shaft oil seal requires lifting the vehicle securely. Start by taking off the right front tire together with wheel followed by removing the right engine splash shield. Detach the right stabilizer shaft brackets from the right lower Control Arm and separate the right Tie Rod End from the right Steering Knuckle together with the right lower Ball Joint from the right Control Arm. The right drive axle must be disconnected from the transaxle while being fastened to the right Steering Knuckle and strut. Use a screwdriver alongside a suitable tool to remove the old seal from its installation area but protect the channel where it resides. To install a new seal apply transaxle fluid to the lip before using the right side axle seal installer (J29130). Guiding the Axle Shaft through the lip seal while using the axle seal protector (J37292-B) ensures contact between splines and seal lip surface remains prevented. After connecting the drive axle to the transaxle users must detach the axle seal protector (J37292-B). You must first install the right lower Ball Joint to the right Steering Knuckle and then the right Tie Rod End and right stabilizer shaft bracket to the right lower Control Arm. After the repairs are done the technician should install the right engine splash shield then put back the right front tire followed by the wheel before lowering the vehicle to check fluid levels and inspect the work while monitoring for leaks.
