[Shotimes] RE: Driver's side axle seal replacement

[Ron Porter]

Probably a good idea to replace whenever the axle comes out (unless you are
Josh or Mark who used to replace axles weekly!!).
When I had my clutch replaced, both I and the tranny shop forgot about the
seals, and one side began leaking after the replacement. Easy to do with the
tranny out.

Probably almost forever as long as you don't remove the half-shaft and
destroy it like I did.
  :)

They last at least as long as a halfshaft I'd say.

What's the average life expectency of that seal?
