When installing seals and other such parts, I have found it helpful to put them in the freezer for several hours before installing them. This will shrink the seal slightly, making it easier to install. Be sure to wipe any condensation from the seal prior to installation. If you're REALLY adventurous, you can gently heat the axle casing around the seal. Don't overdo it; you're just seeking to warm it enough to get that extra thousandth-of-an-inch or so. |
