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

[Ron Porter]

Guess I lucked out, as the AZ is just down the street from the tranny shop,
so I got Timkens.

Got to know the tranny shop guys better than I would have liked!! Dudek got
to now them for his Gen 3 ATX also

FWIW, the Ford seals are prone to leaking. The Timken
that AZ sells for ~$3-5 are much better. I'm going to
replace them when I swap the engine.
