New toyota oil seal. I have marlin seals ordered, but my order got hung up waiting on a 54mm socket from Cruiser outfitters. I ended up buying a 2 1/8 socket from Sears. I only had a few free days to get this done so no marlin seals this time. Next time I do the knuckles I will install them.

That's it for today. Tomorrow I need to finish the hub and rotor install for the passenger side. Then I am starting the calipers, residual valve removal and proportioning valve install. Oh and my shiny rebuilt Aisin hubs.
