Always the right attitude & tunes too. It is a Godly thing to take & better strengthen those things that remain. Tends to comically leave those mass engineering attempts, scratching their profit straining brains. 8720

That was a flashback. I can remember rolling around under a Curtis rack on a creeper while my Granddad did frontends. I spent so many summers in his shop. I can still smell it, black hole bathroom, and all. Looking back, I learned that almost everything can be fixed. Wish it hadn't taken me until I was 40 to remember those lessons. Good job.

I have never had to pull spider gears to remove the carrier except for c clip axles. My dana 60 i just pulled the axles and then the carrier.

You are correct, it's completely unnecessary unless rebuilding the diff.

Proper sized socket and a small hammer have perfectly set hundreds of inner axle seals on every dana 60 I have rebuilt and resealed over 17 years as a factory certified Ford master diesel tech....ZERO comebacks and ZERO leaks. Everytime I used the fancy Rotunda tool I own......leaks and comebacks!! No case spreader needed ever to remove the carrier. Not once have I ever taken spider gears out to remove the carrier unless a complete overhaul is being performed. I own my own busy diesel shop in Calgary Alberta and own the proper Rotunda tools for that differential.....dustiest tools in my shop from lack of use.

I've got that seal tool, it works and i think it's great....only complaint i had is the lack of a lip to stop the seal from being driven in too far. I'm a Senior Master Ford diesel tech, so I've lost count of how many axleseals I've replaced.

A bi-directional ratcheting wrench would work real handy with that. I did the rag trick getting mine out. Put the carrier on ice over night, went right in. I used a long piece of all thread for the installation tool.

i just did my inner seals on my 01 f350 and didn't pull the gears, just the whole differential in tact. also i installed the seals with a 3/4" threaded rod, nuts, and two large sockets. cost me $10. i got lucky to find one socket that fit in the bore perfectly, the other oversized. to avoid a case spreader, i put the differential in the freezer over night, reinstalled, left cover of while it warmed up, so i could remove all condensation with brake wash before sealing up and filling up with gear oil.

that kinda looks like the tool for doing the left seal on a gen 2 dodge you have to go in from where the axle lock is and its a pita was looking at videos and thinking of getting one to do mine. did it the first time pulling it through with some ready rod but its leaking again.

Nice to know thank you. How is your Harbor Freight Icon tools 🛠 doing haven’t heard you talk about them. PS Harbor Freight no longer does mail sales coupons, I was told that they are doing EMail .... ALTHOUGH. I haven’t gotten any yet

Do y’all think a head bolt or two with something welded on the hex side of it and a nut on the thread side with big washers behind that to press a seal in would work

Two 850CCA batteries will be good as long as they are decent quality brand. Stock from Ford is 750cca and going higher is always ok, lower cca would be bad. I use 850cca all the time....17 years experience as a factory certified Ford diesel master tech
