4eat front differential seal replacement

Featured Replies

So, the 4eat in my recently totalled lego was leaking atf into the front diff housing. I REALLY want to use the 4.44 gears in my SVX, but I need to fix this seal first.

Does anyone know of a writeup, or how-to on replacing this seal?

Just pull the TC and shaft and then drive the new seal in.

 

You just have to make sure the TC is seated all the way when you put it back in.

 

I always check to make sure if I push back on the TC it just hits the starter teeth and then I know it's fully seated. It will also pull forward about 1/8" when you bolt the TC up to the flex plate.

Thanks for that writeup on the front main seal. Good info, I apprecieate it. What I'm looking for is the seal between the trans, and front diff. Thats the one thats letting ATF into my diff.
