using a block of wood you most likely damaged/dis-formed the center. when I installed mine i used a large socket that fit the diameter of the seal. your first photo is the correct orientation, raised center out. I also found that soaking in oi land placing the yoke on the seal over night, made the final yoke installation easier
-
there is a seal in your first picture. It looks like the one I just removed from my 51. The seal in your second picture is backwards. the area where the seal fits is slightly smaller than the area where the bearing fits, so you can not judge if it is correct until you remove the original seal. on further review it looks like the seal in your second picture is the grease seal that fits in the brake backing plate, not the oil seal that fits in the axle housing

does anyone know a reason you could not drill out the rear brake drums and install studs from the inside. pro's /con's?

also having mine hydro dipped. Dipper did two tests one on a gray primer back ground one on a white back ground. difference was very noticeable hydo dipping should hold as well as paint, as it has a clear coat applied over the top.

So if I had a stuck flathead what would it cost to rebuild?
LazyK replied to Mikec4193's topic in Mopar Flathead Truck Forum
218 bored, crank turned, head decked, new pistons, bearings, and a gasket kit $1900.00 I also had to purchase a timing chain and gear set. I did the final assembly -
remember the the cooler integral to the radiator will only cool to the water temp of the radiator. so if your water temp is 200+ you would be heating the oil.

Easy way to convert front drums on 53 belv to disc
LazyK replied to Turbo53's topic in P15-D24 Forum
I emailed Rusty Hope. Their response was "their kit was designed for "stock wheels"" . My 51 Cranbrook has stock 15" wheels. Anyone installed this kit, or any other, using stock 15" wheels? ECI gives a diagram showing the need for 16" Scarebird says "will clear"Most" stock wheels" -
Just curious what one might expect from a 1951 plymouth. Been to long since I drove it, and at the time it was not a concern. Dad is no longer around to ask. In the process of a full restoration. I know when it is finished it will be "mega grins per mile".

being in the electrical industry. as a rule heat shrink will shrink to 50% (2:1) of original size. 3M does make some sizes that will do 4:1 https://www.3m.com/3M/en_US/company-us/all-3m-products/~/All-3M-Products/Energy/Power-Distribution/Wire-Cable/Insulation/Heat-Shrink-Tubing/?N=5002385+8709319+8710679+8710817+8711017+8730564+8743879+3294857497&rt=r3

looks like the exact blank to the trunk key for my 51 plymouth. Cut by by AAA lock in AZ circa 1963

hood ornament looks to be 1951

pull the lamps(head and/or tail) check to see what voltage they are. would be a good indicator if it was converted to 12v

have to agree, if you have never been to the salt flats you need to add it to your "list"
-
agree 6.3 lbs per gallons is a lot when in motion. think what a 2lb hammer can do when in motion.
-
you could even go with a satin clear urethane.
