drive flange seal

Post by mad-marc »

Hey there folks,
I was wondering how to exchange the drive flange seal in the front diff of a y60 since it is leaky.
Can I just loosen the locknut and pull off the flange or wil my pinion drop out?

Its easy
Take the load off the diff (unlock the hubs or jack it up) gears.
remove tailshaft
big pipe on socket as its fairly tight - I made a flat bar with some bolts to lock the drive flange and rested the end on the ground to hold it steady
rip out seal
fit new seal

I did both mine recently - no dramas.

Oh, go the genuine seal as the aftermarket ones were not the same. I paid $29 each from Nizzbits
