Front axle shaft seal Which way round? & What about those flat rubber disc seals
I'm just rebuilding my swivel housing on my '91 Y60 axle , I have pulled out the old halfshaft diff oil seal and the new one is a slightly different design (in a complete kit from Aus) and I'm not sure whether the side where you can see the spring faces in or out. Also the area the seal sits in seems way deeper than the seal is, do I just tap it in part way so that there is enough gap behind it to get it out again one day? is that the idea of there being a generous space?
Thanks!
