[Fot] TR6 side diff seals

[Joe Alexander]

I heat and quench several times before applying pressure.

My theory is that the expansion and contraction breaks the bond between the the two surfaces.

It has always worked, and without a press.

>>> Not sure what you call them. Anyone have a NAPA seal number for the seals for the stub axle flanges on the side of the IRS diff. There is one seal for each side of the diff. I got a TR6 diff on the shop floor that is leaking all over. Figured I'd replace them while it's easy.
