I am FINALLY at the point where I can re-install the FF rear axle hubs, diff assy, and axle shafts and get this puppy out of the garage.
However, one of the axle nuts doesn't look quite right, so I'm wondering if I need to stop what I'm doing and replace the nut.
The nut in question...
I slide the hub onto the axle spindle, place a lock washer on, then a thin nut with holes in it where I screw a screw into the thin nut into the lock washer.
Next comes the nut in question. It has a seal inside the lip, and behind or inside the seal is a spring. The spring looks to be pinched. I can see it slightly pretruding from behind the seal.
I'm looking for input from the group on what to do. I quickly looked on SOR.com to see if something is available but the diagram doesn't seem clear enough and the description of the part says just a seal.
