Subject: [TR] Rear Axle Inner Seals
=20
All right, I give up. No way to escape this with the dignity of =
anonymity.
=20
Rear axle seals that fit in the housing come as I guess neoprene. One =
side is flat with a metal facing and a bit of lip, and the other side is =
concave where the neoprene is compressed with a circular spring.
=20
Which side is supposed to face toward the outside of the car? The side =
where you can see the spring, or the side with the metal facing?
=20
I can't find a picture or description anywhere, other than the obscure =
"The lips of the oil seal should be facing inward."
=20
Ugh!
