Rear Axle Deflector

[scrapdaddy]

Hi Guys,

Got a question, on my rear axles. I just ordered some Poly Performance axles and wanted to know if I still need to use the Deflector and gasket, between the studs and the axle flange. They didn't seem to know .

Thanks, Ron

Yes, you should use them. They protect the brakes from gear oil in case your axle seal fails. I would probably replace those seals while you're in there too.

Alright, I wasn't sure what it was. Both axles are getting the full nine yards. Arb's, new axles, bearings, seals, studs, etc.

Thank you for responding, Ron
