    Inner axle seals

    Alright plan on setting my gears this after noon or tomorrow. is there a special procedure i need to do when putting in the inner axle seals? just gently pound them in with a rubber mallet or something? doug didnt you do this on your 60 when you set your gears?

    They suck to change.

    I might be on crack but its been awhile since I played with them. They go in from the inside right. I just remember using a long piece of pipe to get them in or out.

    When we did Doug's we used a long piece of angle iron to go through the tube, and held a flat piece of steel between the angle and the seal. We have 3 or 4 people so one held the housing in place, one held the angle and steel plate in line (with their fingers, take that OSHA!) and one hammered. It was not hard.
    On the 8th day god created the Super Swamper TSL and said "go forth and kick ass"

    if you say that then you are not wise in the ways of assembly.
