bushytails Posted Sunday at 04:38 AM Share Posted Sunday at 04:38 AM Someone in another thread recently said they couldn't find the right driver for installing front wheel seals, so here's the random find I've been using for Gen II seals, a HyperTough 64P-14 oil filter socket, with the outside very slightly filed for a looser fit in the knuckle.

SuspiciousPizza Posted Monday at 06:17 PM Share Posted Monday at 06:17 PM That inner seal is the one that gave me the most issues. Seemed like the smaller the diameter of the seal, the easier to install. Probably less resistance because of the smaller surface area contacting the bore.

bushytails Posted Monday at 10:32 PM Author Share Posted Monday at 10:32 PM On Gen II, inner and outer are the same seal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuspiciousPizza Posted 5 hours ago Share Posted 5 hours ago On the 3rd gens the outer seal is smaller, it fits around the inner boss of the hub. The inner seal is larger. It snugs up against the outer CV joint. The outer cup of the CV is the sealing surface so the seal is quite large. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
