Save yourself some time and just drop it off at a machine shop. Napa took everything off and pressed the new parts on for $65. Drop it off, pick it up in an hour or two, done.
Edit: just read that you HAVE a press, I read that backwards. You'd still probably save time if you just take it in, just not money.

When we did mine my friend had a seal puller tool he had bought previously.
Are they too expensive?
Found one on ebay for 160 shipped, but dont know if its worth it. Since this is the last time I will be doing this axle seal job
Yea. Which Napa charges that much to do it??
Expensive. Aren't these all you need? ($30 each)

I never said I need an axle seal puller. I need the SST tool or something similar to press out the bearings, not the seals. I can take it out safely with a small pry bar
