hub seal

[weeds]

righto i have been having troubles with my drivers side rear hub seal.....just fitted a new one and have driven around the block and no leaks woohoo:cool:

the new stubb axle that i fitted last time round (6mths ago) is in perfect nick, the old seal after i knocked it out of the hub slid over the stub axle with no effort...buggered

i put the new seal in using the drive flange to set the depth.....thats to the forum members who suggested this

gave the bearings a lick of grease as i have maxi axles fitted and need to wait til the oil works it way out

will see how long it lasts

bad news, discovered one of the poly airs has a hole in it:(will start a new thread on this one

did you give the seal a lick of grease on the lips?

yep

[isuzurover]

was the buggered one double-lipped?

Checked the breather isn't blocked? (unlikely if it breathes through the MD cylinder)

the one i removed was doubled lipped 3115? nah cannot remember the number

i still have a oil leak from around the breather/air locker lines, i have triple checked everything but all seems good, i did drain 100mm - 200mm of oil out of the diff i.e it was overfull
