Seal part number
So I finally got around to doing the drivers side birf and I screwed the axle seal while installing it. Does anyone know the part number for this piece? Who would carry one in Calgary? I have always had good luck at Modern Motors. BTW, the application is a 1985 bj70 cdn edition.
Thanks Karl |

Thanks guys. It turns out that the hilux and the bj70 seal are the same, or at least appear the same. I kind of expected this because according to some rescources on the web the axle shaft diameter is the same, but the pinion is smaller on the hilux. I was kinda strapped for transportation and a fella owning a shop called Yota Dan came buy my office and dropped a couple off. this was expensive though. Just to be sure I called a local dealer (Henninger) and told them my tale and asked if the parts were the same. When he looked up the applications from the correct part number the hilux did not show up, but I was not surprised. Nevertheless, he offered to send two seals with thier driver to my office. Sitting the two seals side by side, they look the same. So I now have three extras.
This brings me to another question. Suppose I had to swap a birf in the field. Can a fella just pop the hub and circlip off the axle, the brake line, and remove the (cant think of the words right now) knuckle bearing caps, to get at the birf? Seams to me to be a slightly easier way than removing the spindle. Karl |

The 40,60,62,70, mini use the same part. Not sure why it doesn't come upf or all apps. I'll have to look at mine again.
Anyway, You could take off the knuckle but it's not easier. __________________ 1964 FJ40 | 1966 M416 | 1976 FJ40 | 1985 BJ70 Volvo Power| 1997 FZJ80 | TDI commuter car You should be able to delete your own thread. Communists abound
