9 N Ford axle seal and brake replace 

well, she did try but it was more than the both of us wanted to handle, but we got it done.

sometimes if one way to skin a cat don't work, we have to try another way.. lol

@@MissouriOldTimer That is for sure.

I thought so too at first, but on the edge it curled up part of the outer seal area so I didn't want to trust it.

thank you, I've still got a ways to go.

yes they are, this axle and brake drum had to come out as one piece so it was very heavy.

yes, it's not the easiest thing but now that I understand how it's supposed to work it better.

this is the first time I ever did one of these so it's kind of a learning thing for me.

you are welcome, glad you got something out of it,, thanks for watching.

I wouldn't want to lift that axle assembly very long every day.lol

yes, there's no real good way to support the axle when you are working on the ground and no substantial support to put the jack on.

I don't guess I really need one but we do have a little to use one for on the lots we bought next door.

The brake shoes might be pressing against the brake drum. There is a brake adjuster you might need to ajust.

yes.. just have to take it slow. lol

they are heavy I tried to keep the tire straight up or it could have gotten away from me.

yes, the 2n and 9 n are different from the 8n, in that the rear hubs are very heavy because more has to come off to get to the seals and brakes.

actually I don't remember what they were, it's been a while.

it was fine,

thank you.

yes but I guess that's the fun of it.. it looks like your project is coming along good, nice scenery .

lol, thanks, done with it, can only do so much in a little place.

yes that pipe had been up in the "loft" of my old shed for who knows how long. but the last way seemed to work better.

boy you know it, I'm waiting for someone like you that is a pro to put out a video showing exactly how to do it... oh, wait,, you can't, you don't have a channel... and I was so looking forward to you teaching me how an expert does it...

@@MissouriOldTimer The Hack. Folks think those sure seals are the end all to the problem they are not. The original issue is the outer seals are leaking. It’s believed packing them with grease and covering up that mess with a SS is the fix. The proper repair is to replace the original seals. Its quite a job to replace those seals that takes special tools are a torch to cut out the wheel bearing. Once the wheel bearing has been cut you will need a new bearing. The next option is to make a tool to pull the hub and bearing saving the parts. You would need a press and a good press at that. It only takes one drop of oil on a brake shoe to fudge them up heating them will not remove the oil. Trash the shoes and replace with new. Doing a seal/brake job on a 9/2N is quite a project why haft arse it ? In the hack DIY world your repair is famed as the real deal it’s not period.
