Oh boy. I had my super duty inner seal changed three times from the same shop and every time it starts leaking within a few months. I bet the monkeys didn’t have the specialty tool. Ended up doing the seal replacements myself with the specialty tool and it’s been a year no leaks. Great video. To the point and useful
We have a ton of 350’s and a couple of 450’s and all of them have the same issue where the 4×4 doesn’t work unless the hubs are manually locked.. does anyone know why that is and how to fix it? Thanks
Does the seal seat the same depth on a 50 vs a 60 DANA? i see one company makes one installer just for 50 and says its seats different, but I see several companies that make 50/60 seal installers.
Labor how many hours should that pay, adding labor to replace u joints on the shafts.
Cant you just unbolt 4 bolts on hub assembly and slide it out as a whole unit ? And have to remove brake caliper and rotor.
When he pulled the hub bearing assembly you could see how much play the upper ball joint had. Can you imagine how bad that truck rode, and probably ate tires??
Can I put in 2 seals a inch or so apart from one another
My carrier didnt come out whats the trick???
