Does anybody know who has the axle seal install tools #DT-48721,48722 ? Thanks for the info if you can help.

Jeff,
Looking at the service manual there are 8 other various special tools mentioned for the diff.
All of these tools (no matter if its a puller or an install jig fixture) have the same naming convention DT-[5 digit number].
DT I'd think would be a GM generic prefix for "Diff Tool".

Looking at the engine section all the special tools start with a J prefix.

So it's safe to assume eg: DT-12345 would be a GM issued number.
I have no listing, specs, or cross reference to commercially available equivalents.

Jeff,
After doing some digging on the Kent-Moore site I have found that they do list the "DT-" tools.
Here is one I found DT-47866
It looks like their site hasn't been updated. I would call them directly and ask for the two tools you are looking for.

I found a supplier here on the East Coast of Aus who has 5x the DT-48721 (right hand seal install tool) in stock.
Unfortunately he has zero of the DT-48722 (left hand seal install tool) in stock. It would take him 2 weeks to get stock of the left tool.
