#78486, "plastic seal thing in tranny the goes around the axle - can it be replaced?"




          

I am about to seal up my tranny and get it back in the car, but I noticed that the plastic seal that goes around one of the halfshafts is in bad shape. My question is can/should I replace this? If I can, how and where do I buy those parts. I tried to knock those loose from both sides and it seemed damn impossible. I hope someone out there knows what I'm tryin to say and will give me a hand.



Anyone know anyone who can help me tune this in the Pittsburgh area (Greensburg)?

Must be... if the transmissions are rebuildable at all (which they are, its just not cost effective most of the time)

should stop by your nearest satan parts dept and ask (or wait for someone with FSM cd rom to show up)

FS: 2.5" Test Pipe 25 shipped

Look in www.2gnt.com/CAPS/. The MTX section (22) of CAPS is in the www.2gnt.com/nuke/modules.php?name=Part_Number_Lookup, so you can even get a part number to bring to the stealership.

I did one of the seals in my lebaron, but it wasn't plastic, it was metal with a spring. I used a screwedrive and a pair of pliers to pull the old one out, and used a seal driving kit to put the new back in (also used a torch and put it in the fridge to try and make it easier; it was still a pain).

its call an axle seal. its easyer if you get then out from inside the tranny but if thats too much work, then you can be carful with a flat head screw driver or chisel and get the outer edge inward and then pull it out with pliers.

for shit if i knew they were plastic.....

Having Problems? Heres my Three step solution to anything 2gnt related.
Step 1: Put down everything in your hands.
Step 2: Grab a lucky strike, Smoke it.
Step 3: Walk to the fridge, double fist some keystone ice, sit down in the shade, drink one beer, finish cigarette, drink other beer, roll a joint, smoke it, walk back to your problem, and in about 5 minutes the solution will come to you.
If not. Go here: here

If still nothing, your trying to hard. Start over at step 1.
