stub axle sleeve

Post by atuffery »

Hi folks, wonder if anyone can help me by explaining the correct procedure to remove the stub axle bronze sleeve (part no FRC2928) from the stub axle so that I can replace the stub axle oil seal (FRC3099). And then the procedure for putting it all back together.....? Thanks

I haven't done one for a while but the bronze ring is driven out with a pin punch and refitted with a tube, metal seal installer or large socket. The inner seal is inside the tin cup which can be a fiddle to remove. Ideally a new tin cup is purchased. Otherwise use a narrow slot screwdriver as a pin punch and drive out the seal. Refit with a tube, seal installer or large socket.

I assume that you've read the workshop manual v8 supplement?
