For a torn CV boot in the front, the previous owner put a new axle/boot which had no problems, until I backed it out of the garage and the front left wheel bound up. I took it to a polaris repair shop, found that the bearings and the hillard clutch were chewed up. The mechanic said it looked like there wasn’t any lube in the hub, and then quoted me nearly 2k$ for a new strut, hub, and bearings and labor(5 hrs at 80$). I’ve found the parts I need for a fraction of the the shop price. There seems to be a seal that is missing from the hub. Does this need a special tool to press a new seal back in?
