    At the risk of sounding unknowledgeable, are axle seals and wheel bearing seals the same thing in this instance?I've seen the seal between a driveshaft and transmission referred to as an axle seal as well

    What grease is on the axle seal? My new seal is leaking on the drivers side of my 2008 Civic. I removed and reinstalled once already but maybe I need to add grease to it.

    My brother, as soon as I spun the driveshaft both gears fell out. I hope they aren't too hard to put back in. Also, I noticed mine doesn't have that S clip /clamp in the middle of the gears like yours does. Is that normal? I have an 03 liberty sport v6

    What are some symptoms of bad axle seal, aside from the leaking? I have a Nissan frontier 2wd. I notice when I accelerate from a dead stop, it feels like the truck rocks back almost like a tiny slip in the gears finally catches. It drives smooth without a problem when I'm cruising, then once I brake and come to a complete stop, it'll do the same jerk/rock back feeling. I honestly thought my driver's seat wasn't fully bolted down and when I accelerate or brake it'll rock a little bit but that's not the case. Also, it doesn't happen all the time. Sometimes the throttle response is perfect and braking is normal. At least 4 times a week it'll do that rocking motion

      You ever find out the issue to the jerk/rock back feeling? I got the same thing happening on my car when slowing down/accelerating, does not happen often maybe once or twice a week.

    If you're this far into it just replace both bearings and seals. New bearings and seals is about $25. Just rent a bearing puller from the auto parts store. Also, refill with Amsoil severe gear oil. Its the best.

    • @danielredheffer9309
      @danielredheffer9309 Рік тому +1

      Normally age and/or driving conditions. Sometimes things like larger/wider tires can cause more stress on the seals and cause then to wear out prematurely as well.
