Setup: Installation of the Febi Bilstein 33970 requires the removal of the wheel hub assembly. The old seal must be carefully extracted, and the mating surface cleaned. The new seal should be gently and evenly pressed into place, ensuring it is seated flush and without damage. It is highly recommended that this process be performed by a qualified mechanic to avoid damaging the seal or other components.
