Front Axel Seal for Solid axel swap

Mighty Thor · 03-03-2007, 05:48 PM

95 YJ, Dana 30 front end with Factory Disconect. I am replacing axels.
I bought a set of heavy front Axels from a member here and bought the Warn kit to swap to the big U joints and hubs.

The drivers side obviously uses the factory oil seal in the pumpkin, right next to the carrier bearing.

On the passenger side the two piece axel is quite a bit bigger around than the single piece replacement, particularly where the seal is located, right at the disconnect spot. So where do you put the seal on this set up and does anyone have a part # I thought about just putting another driver side seal on the passenger side next to the carrier bearing, but the diameter's of the two sides are different. The driver side seal will not fit on the passenger side.

If I remember right the Warn kit should come with seals for both sides of the pumpkin. They are different sizes.

The Kit does not have any axel seals because it is for the u-joints, outer axels and hubs etc. my kit does not include anything for the inner axels.

Not sure if these numbers are right but I have for the passenger side #37897. I think that is a Warn number but you should be able to go to any parts store and just ask for that number of seal. You can also call Warn. You should have a telephone number with the kit you bought.
