Title: Front pinion seal
Post by: emptyhead on July 25, 2021, 05:52:46 AM

I’m replacing both pinion seals on the halftrack and did the rear but on the front I don’t see a seal for the seal housing in the base shop data book,but when I pulled the seal housing off it looks like there a thin cork gasket set in the bearing cage. Have you guys replaced this also with an o ring cut to fit or just used some gasket material in between the seal housing and the bearing cage. Sorry a lot of post lately, been checking off the punch list. Thanks
