Just in case you didn't understand Greg, the seals install from the center. You have to remove the third member to get to the seal, that is what makes it such a pain in the butt. At first I thought it was just because the Moser axle wasn't polished at the seal surface area. Had a machine shop put the axle on a crank polisher and make it shiny. Got what the O.D. was supposed to be from Speedway before polishing, to be sure I didn't make them too small.

There is not enough inside diameter on the IMSA snout to fit a seal out at the wheel. The 2.5" Grand national snout does also have a outside seal. I just didn't like how close the wheel bearings are together on the GN style. The extra seal is a definitely an advantage though. Wouldn't stop the center leak but should keep the oil out of the wheel bearings.

Hoping this new style seal fixes the problem. Had the car out yesterday, did a Pro Mod burnout across the Conowingo Dam, car is so fun to drive.
