Alright so this morning at 7a.m. I finally got my rear output shaft seal after searching all day yesterday... Thanks to the search option on this forum, lol... I just got around to putting it in because my dads duramax broke down, lol. But first a little background...
The transfer case is a reman from autozone I put in about 6 months ago... This seal was leaking from day one but I didn't feel like dealing with it at the time... So yesterday I got around to fixing it and found out how hard it was to actually find this seal...
Here is the diagram I am looking at...

I am using the the little pic for 1997 and up also... Mine is a 98 limited...
When I disassembled it, the seal was on first, then some washer, then that little protective cup dohicky(not sure what to call it)... In this diagram is shows like 2 washer like things going on... I don't have the other one and the one on there doesn't seem to fit right... Then after looking at the diagram again, I see there is a washer and slip ring that goes in before the seal... And now I am not sure if maybe this washer is suppossed to be in before the seal and I am completely missing the two that go on before the protective cap...
So what is the purpose of the one that goes in before the seal? and the purpose of the ones after the seal before the protective cap thing? I am sure they must be needed if they are there but what do I do since I dont have them? I guess I need to pull the new seal out and check for the inside one? Darn, maybe I can find another one locally, lol or maybe get that one out without messing it up...
So, , please help... I have always found what I need by searching but now I can't and I am in Cartersville, Ga at the moment and I have to report back to Fort Jackson, SC by 2100 tomorrow night and this is my transportation!!!
Thanks for any help or insight you can give me on this...
