Dodgeb4ya Posted September 22, 2015 Report Share Posted September 22, 2015 Use a modern correct seal # part and a speedi sleeve. The correct seal# and info was just on here. Search Pinion seal replacement or similar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Skinner Posted September 23, 2015 Report Share Posted September 23, 2015 Yolk usually has a small groove in it and requires a sleeve to maintain a good seal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dodgeb4ya Posted September 23, 2015 Report Share Posted September 23, 2015 What does the axle have to do with the pinion seal?I think he means the the new pinion yoke seal still leaks. Not the axle shaft inner or outer seals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Skinner Posted September 23, 2015 Report Share Posted September 23, 2015 Yes, of course. I should have said because the Yolk has worn down - with a potential groove in it. Then a new pinion seal will not suffice. The tiny groove is where it is leaking. He will need to install a sleeve on the yolk to return the diameter of the yolk to original condition, thus the seal will function again.
