Im doing a pinion conversion on my 404 mogs using the splined section of the tailshaft and the end piece of the torque tube to end up with something the looks like the exaxt conversion.
My question is this - I was thinking that I would have to put a seal in the end of the torque tube (which is now only 3 inches long) that would run on the outside of the internally splined flanged yoke (which was the splined end of the old drive shaft) BUT on pulling everything apart I can see that there is a alrerady an oil seal that sits in the end of the third member housing that runs onthe pinion shaft so I carnt see that I need to make another seal?? Anyone ever looked at this??
I was thinking if there is already an oil seal that was there then maybe all I need to attach is a dust seal to keep the big lumps out.
