[Mgs] Leaking Rear Axle Seals

[Paul Hunt]

Sorry I meant if the original sleeve is worn you should replace that rather
than adding a speedi-sleeve, but you would need to replace the oil seal as
well.  The sleeve is item 91 on
http://www.mossmotors.com/Shop/ViewProducts.aspx?PlateIndexID=29022#91 part
number 266-030, collar oil seal.  The lip of the seal i.e. the grooved side
always faces inwards i.e. towards the clean side i.e. the oil or grease and
the flat face faces outwards.  Haynes and the Workshop Manual both mention
this.

FWIW neither mention the orientation for the front hub oil seals, but it is
the same.

  Are you saying it is unnecessary to use speedi sleeves because the axle is
already sleeved, thus only the seals need to be replaced?


  Also, I am still unclear as to which direction the seal faces when
installed. Can you give me a quick description or point me toward a good info
source.
