Yes I use a flat screw driver to remove the a-arm dust seals - but be careful you don't gouge them too much beyond repair. I did the first time I removed the dust seals because I got ticked off and used to much force. Steady pressure is the key. There is probably another method but this works great for me. Let us know how is works out for you.

It worked fine but I destroyed the seals for the bearing carrier. Which sucked because I planned to save the seals and replace the bearings. LIve and Learn...:rolleyes:
