Hey Guys,
1966 MKIII Sprite.
I have the rear end carrier out of the housing, intending to change the gasket while I'm redoing the wheel cylinders, axle seals etc.
My question is about changing the pinion seal. Now that I get a good look at the carrier, the pinion seal might be leaking too although the gasket was rock hard and came out in oil-soaked pieces. I've never done that job before. Anything tricky? Certainly just changing the seal won't affect gear lash or anything.
I'd hate to be here and a month from how wish I had changed the pinion seal while there.
I'm new to this forum. How do I search for previous threads on this subject?
TIA,
Donald
