Aluminium Axle Case
.
Without using sharp, jagged tools such as pliers (usually your
hands are the best tool for this job), bend the seal housing tube at a
right angle, immediately where it protrudes through the bearing
housing, and then another sharp bend upwards, at approximately
25mm from the centre line (Fig. 16.).
The tube can be adjusted more accurately by positioning the
aluminium case in place (Fig. 17.).
When the tube profile is finalized, apply gasket sealant on the
sealing face of the axle case and finger tighten it to the differential
housing.
