Has anyone done this?
How did you get if on? Used a lenght of pipe I'm guessing?
Bought at NAPA ?
I've used them on pinions before but never an axle shaft. Think I paid liek $45 for the last one.
The troublesom leak in my 9 is back. I noticed the axle had a groove and was pitted when I rebuild the 9 and replace the housing ends. I cleaned it up and it's been good (so I thought) for almost 2 years. It's odd the leak just started. Maybe it's the cold weather (well cold to us in AR) we had lately causing the seal to shrink or not grip as tight? Everything was fine till I drove it in the snow and cold the other day (low teens when driving, single didgits the night before)
The seal was National Brand. Appears to be single lipped.
