Axle seal replacement

[CJ]

$300 is about normal. Morris 350 and we get 10% off here at the site. No tax for you though and Qudratec is about the same. Summit is the cheapest but it will be 2 or more weeks before they get them in.

Superior and Mosser usually use better axle bearing also.

If by alloy your guy ment Alloy USA I would not go that way. I'm a tool maker by trade and a little pickey about quality. I spent a couple hours deburing the splines on the front axles I have from them, the ears didn't look so good either. But they haven't broke yet.

I just wanted to say that all turned out well. I replaced the axles and had a moderate amount of difficulty with some parts of it. Ended up pulling the whole assy out of the right side together, as the hub had no plans in coming off. I even bought the right hub puller to do it. Oh well, the left side came off easily, and I'm back on the road. Thanks to all that responded. I learned that much more about Jeep mania.

Great to hear that! And now you have a much better axle to wheel on!

Did you take any pics of the change over? How about a tech article write up...

Glade to hear it's back on the road.

Now that you have the one piece axles, you won't need that hub puller anymore.

Old Dog he will need it (hub puller) when he helps a fellow Jeeper convert to one piece axles.

Tell ya what guys.... I dont know about writing a tech article, but I could possibly give it a try. And if anyone ever needs a hub puller, call me! I was out this morning installing a center console and while I was underneath, pulled the rest of the smog tubes going to the exhaust pipe. My Jeep is registered in another county where I will live most of the time. So emissions is not a concern.

Writing an article is just like writing a 'how to post'... Just lay out the steps...

Installing a console - pulling emissions... Only a CJ owner could come up with that combo!
