I decided to reseal a new transmission + diff this weekend.
What happened was I drove 3 of the seals in at improper angles and need to go buy all new ones for another attempt.
The seals were the transmission output shaft + 2x differential output flange seals.
For all of them, I used some kind of evenly cut tube + gentle tapping with a rubber hammer.
Is doing an even drive of a seal really this hard? Is there any technique I should know about?
