Another step you can add is to use the drum to remove the grease seal. The
older the coach the more important it is to do it this way.
After removing the outer bearing replace the washer, thread the nut back on
several turns. Grip the brake drum carefully with both hands. Ease it toward
you until it touches the inner bearing. Then push it away a short distance,
and pull sharply back toward you. This will cause the washer to push the
inner bearing out with the seal. In virtually all cases the seal comes out
intact. You may have to repeat once or twice.
