C-clip elliminator
I took an old Mark Williams C-clip kit off when I upgraded to the 9-inch Ford ends for the Baer brakes. The bearing has an O-ring around the O.D. and then uses an outside sealed bearing. To make it all work you need to gasket or seal the backing plate to the axle housing and then the bearing cup needs to gasket or seal to the other side of the backing plate. Mine did weep a little on the right side enough to contaminate my brakes shoes. But I don't see why this would leak any more than any other sealed bearing if you take care !
I tried to take mine apart without a press and ended up damaging them. I should have just saved the axles complete for a rainy day !
