Ok after lunch I attacked things anew, and ended up getting the seal out by tapping (hammering really) a screwdriver in between the seal and the metal. That let me pry from the outside instead of the inside and did the job. If that's the worst of this job I will be a happy chappy.
I now have a similar question to Pabloako. As I was trying to get the seal out I noticed a couple of things that seemed to be just sitting loose behind the seal and I pulled them out. One looks like the thrust ring that Pabloako mentions. And the other is a circular spring that's stretchy, larger than the thrust ring or the axle so not entirely obvious where it belongs. Would anyone know how I put these two things in before I move to putting the new seal in?
