Gear installation clinic....

[Lawn Cher']

when changing gears would be a good time to replace front axle seals too right?

well, my passenger side axle seal might as well not exist, so i guess now is the time...

do master install kits come with new axle seals?
are there any special tools for changing axle seals?

thanks guys...

WTF, this ain't tech. Search, newb!

The master install kits don't come with axle seals, only the pinion seal and maybe a cover gasket.
Orielly's has them.

Next time search nOOb.

FWIW
My Yukon MI kit came with inner seals. I'm new to the re-gearing scene so maybe I'm not on the same page....
Since I'm at work and extreamly busy at the moment...here's pics.

Aren't the seals to the left of the yellow packet? There are 2 there, they are stacked. Cover gasket came with, not in pic.

Fer sher they are.

Seems to be the case.

Come on.
Somebody needs to regear. It'll be cheap, and it looks like there will be plenty of help. What a deal.

Okie and Ranger,
I'm not bringing my air comp. like we talked about, if there is no takers.
