How To Install Axle shaft Vacuum And Dust Seal On Ford F250 F350 Excursion Superduty 1999-2004 

Thank you for explaining that the axle spindle seal does not sit in the housing. I was struggling for like 2 hours yesterday even ripped one but it needed replacing anyways. Learning curve.

I'm in the middle of doing this very thing on my front end and boy did you just solve a lot of problems for me, thanks.

Your videos are super helpful. Im very happy with your customer service and your great products. My truck is riding really good. Thank you. I’ll be back.

Best video ever. Thanks a lot from Norway🙂 the idea with the paperboard was clever.

Brilliant, thanks for the tips. I'd definitely look to buy axle parts from you guys in the future.

But all in all great video, very clear and properly demonstrated 👍🏽great job man . Very helpful

Good Stuff, Great Tips👍🏿😀 2016 F250 XLT 6.2L 4W 4D (Stock)

Awesome, but I went with the Timken upgraded dust seal. It is beefier, and offers better/longer protection. Thanks for the video

Awesome information....👍👍👍👍

The OTC toll also helps to properly set the install depth of the axle/seal assembly into the knuckle.

Thank you !

I received new front Hub-bearing assembly, and they came w/additional parts. I thought those additional parts are some king of seals for the bearing-hub assembly, and couldn't find out how to put them together. Now I know that those mystical objects are Spicers, an Inner Axle seal for those who plan to extract that Axle. Thank you for the showing installation process though I plan just to change the Hub-bearing unit. In my set I also received two O rubber rings, where do they go? Is the process for a small car the same? Thank you for the film again.

Is there a dust cover that goes on the axel before the vacuum seal? I took the old one off my truck and there seems to be a rusted out cover of some sort that goes on first

Thank youuuuu man... You are good☺️

Is that vacuum seal on backwards?

But the inner dust sheld shoudl get pushed into the Axel tube right ?

I'm using the old stub shaft do I remove the dust shield

are they directional? i think i put mine on backwards or i didnt put my axel in aak they

What about the dust shield? Behind the seal?

wait so that seal doesnt go all the way into that axel end to block the entry? you just left it dangling there..

Does the axle tube has a seal?

What if you just put some grease on your fingers and put them in the tube to hold the axle up and then just slide your fingers out when you’re close enough….

What about the Oring that comes with em from spicer?

What's the name of the seal inside where you put the piece of carbon?

Is a press the only option for this even if you use the 6695?

I have a 1999 F350 4x4 and I can’t find the outer hub axle seal for the front right axle. The part number 50381 that keeps popping up is too small.

Can the vacuum seal be installed with tool you use and a mallet or sledge ? And whats best to use for lubricating hub selector ?

Are use the 6695 tool to press the vacuum seal in place went fine, snap ring popped right in. Then I desired to do the u-joint so I removed the seal. After installing seal axle assy in to the hub I was not able to get the washer-thrush washer-washer and snap ring on, the seal is just not far enough down the shaft. I put the tool on and just beat the hell out of it, the end of my tool mushroomed, the seal did not move. I've tried and tried to pull the axle out, it just won't move. I've watched all your videos, can't figure what I did wrong. Now this is the second time I've done this, first time went fine. It's the second reinstallation of the same seal. Maybe I need a new seal but on one of your videos the seal. Passenger side went just fine.

I’ve been given the wrong inner seal three times now, maybe I’ll just wrap it with electrical tape.
