my front pass axle seal was leaking. went in to replace it and found it was very hard to figure out if it was aligned straight. well we did the best we could, used some grease on the edge as advised by the manual, then reassembled, refilled, and all seemed to be well. its now 3 or 4 days later and it is leaking again. :(
i assume this is because it didnt go in straight?
few questions for those who have replaced this themselves:
1) how far in did you push the seal? did you make the lip of the seal match the lip of the axle, or did you push farther in?
2) what did you use to tap it in? i dont have a 66mm socket or whatever would fit that, :laugh:
3) any tips on how to ensure it is straight?
gonna have another go at it soon.
thanks.
