    Front Pinion seal???

    Gday Guys

    Iam in the process or was off replacing the front pinion seal and flange, I bought the diff flange kit 4 bolt STC4858 but when I pulled mine apart the flange supplied is longer and also the seals are different.

    The seal I pulled out has BAFVI1UD3 SLSF DRWX67 stamped on it and after a google search could not find much info.

    Ive emailed the supplier as its saturday plus there in Sydney so wont find out anything from them till monday but theres plenty of other things to do on the old girl.

    Ive added a few pics to see if anybody can help me Identify the seal and also do I have the wrong parts or perhaps a different diff.

    The "new" part looks like the end on the Transfer Case.

    I'd say you got the output flange, not the diff flange.

    I was just looking at that part number, when I requested the kit I was unsure which one as I have the parts/price book but that was the kit the supplier recommended I even included my vin number in the email.

    Or well these things happen but the postive thing is ive learnt something today thanks for your help.

    So does the new drive flange fit now ?
    In a toyota the spacer is a crushable so as to get the right preload, Its been a while but dont you have to use shims to preload the pinion bearings ?

    Yes it fits and went for a 30k drive and no leak so far.

    Shims are used to set the preload but I figured if I tighten to 130Nm it should be Ok.

    There is a little play when you turn the flange by hand but for a fender with nearly 400k on the clock you would have to expect that.

    I figure these days if you dont have a go you will never no and the more mistakes I make the more I learn.

    I recently rebuilt the brake master cylinder I was a little hesitant as it is your brakes and also its the family car which the wife drives everyday but 2 months later and almost 5k it brakes better then it ever did (touch wood).
