I am in the process of fixing a nasty leak coming from the driver's side front wheel area. I didn't even see a felt gasket. Fluid would drip out of there like made.
I have everything apart and cleaned up. I noticed out the oil seals came out - the top was facing down and the bottom was facing up; is that normal? (The reason I'm asking is because someone else worked on this many moons ago and I'm not sure if they had it right.)
Also, how far down do I tap in these shaft/oil seals? Do they have to have a space between them?
And last, do I have to grease the bearings or just oil them as they will supposedly be in a gear oil bath???
