The o ring comes with the bearing and seal if you get a blueprint kit
you will need a press and some hot gas and i used a dremmel to grind down the collar to weaken it,oh and becareful not to bend the back plate


Edit ........best do both as found the one that wasn't leaking was in a bad way too , Plus get new diff oil

Our lists of broken bits seems to be very similar

It's not funny but true.

looks like it they are badly scored ....also have a noisy bearing in the front diff

Its normally a shagged bearing, because its loose the seal at the outer end of the axle leaks oil. Change them both.
