That's how to change the seals on THAT rear axle. There are several more rear axles out there that include 7.5" ring gears and you don't have to go to nearly half the trouble you show in this video for a few of them. You should adjust your description to say, "This video will show you how to change seals on ONE of the rear axles available for 1998-2012 Ford Ranger"... Signed, A PROFESSIONAL MASTER TECH.

Is there a seal inside the interior like next to the spider gear? Or is there only the one seal on the outside that you did in the video?

@HomeOwnerRepair 11 ай бұрын

Just the one shown in the video.

@annrobinson1409 Жыл бұрын

would this seal be what needs replacing to fix a differential fluid leak at the wheel? provided the axle isnt worn down

@HomeOwnerRepair Жыл бұрын

It that axle seal is worn you may have some differential fluid leak out of it.

Hi two small gears dropped when changing the axle on a 2006 cord ranger. How do I put gears back in place? I have one in but the other can’t seem get back in place can you help me?

I have an 08 Ranger. My issue is that the left side axle moves in and out. The seal is not leaking, no odd noises, but I feel like it should not move in and out of the rear diff assembly. Any ideas what I should check? Is it the differential pin? It seems there should be almost no side to side movement when everything is correct.

@Kro_man_tx 3 жыл бұрын

It just moves maybe 1/16 to 1/8 inch.

Does the drum need to be disassembled to change the axle seals?

@HomeOwnerRepair 2 жыл бұрын

You would have to remove the brake components as shown in the video to gain access to the seals. If you watch the video you should be all set. Hope this helps you out.

I got a question I’m up against! How do you know if there 9 inch brakes or 10 inch brake pads.? Does a 2002 Ford ranger xlt 4x4 have 2 different sizes? Advanced auto is like clueless of what size.. they tell me match them up! Ok who’s the say the previous mechanic put on the wrong shoes! I have a 4.0 engine in mine if that makes a difference...

You may want to bring one with you to the parts store so they can match it up. Hope this helps you out.

@@HomeOwnerRepair thank you for the reply.. I did today buy both sets and put them in the drum and the 9 inch was skinner And the ten inch was perfect putting them in side of the drum... And I have to say between a 9 inch brake versus a 10 inch brake pad is like half the size... Thanks again for this response..
