Well let me state the obvious, when doing a job and you take a ton of pictures of the before so you won't forget it during the after, look at those pics. Yes the seal is on all the way and has been on all the way the whole time. So let the games begin and get your best shat in now. I give you...
I know there are many threads out there on this subject, however, I need some more detailed help on the installation. Here is what I've tried so far.
I of course tried to just grease the spindle and push the new seal on by hand, now everyone say "that doesn't work". Of course I didn't think...
First stop tomorrow is the home store for a 3" pvc coupler to make the seal tool. Then I will rtv the keyway and put her back together and see what happens. Wish I would have looked at that closer before I bought the seals and took it all off. **** ADD I could have saved so much work by just...
You know after reading a bunch of threds and thinking more about this it hit me, maybe my seals aren't bad but someone neve put the cork in the keyway? I read in one thred that the rear seal is a greese only seal and when oil mixes with the bearing greese it will wash past the rear seal. It...
Does anyone have a picture of where these cork gaskets go or what they look like? Doing my rear hubs now and have seen no cork anywhere. Maybe this is adding to my leak?
Thank you

Hello PapaPump
Part of my decision was made on cost and serviceablity. The 5 tons are awesome but the cost is something I couldn't justify at this time. Also with a bigger truck comes bigger and heavier parts. I don't have a shop but I do have a shade tree and it's just me. So you can see...
Now that's funny. Maybe I should have my 14 y/o do it like when she cleaned out the cab of my F350. Nothing was left in there, all cd's, tape measure, tire guage..ect...... And I still couldn't see out the windshield with all the streaks. But I'm sure she can sweep.
Well I got to work and found out that a storm is comming through, not her, and I called home to ask her to unplug the trickle charger. No answer. In my mind, she either left or hooked up the batts and took it for a spin. Well she was just at the store. But she was willing to let me walk her...
