On the installment sleeve, I did have it on ;) I removed it for the picture because my camera wasn't focusing in macro mode with the light reflecting on the thin plastic.
Also the steel washers are in place and never were removed.
I rubbed plenty of lube around inside the seat and the seal, which is why I'm here. That didn't work which concerns me.
I see what I did wrong with the socket now though, so it's a good thing I didn't apply much pressure. I don't feel like waiting for Rock Auto to ship another set of seals
