There used to be a kit for that. Not sure if it is still available.

You have to loosen the main caps and take of the rear one, then use the tool from the kit that screws into the seal to pull out the half on the top, then the tool for installing the one on the top is like the old Chinese finger toy that as you pull your fingers away from each other tightens on them.
