Axle seals

[TwitchSRT]

anyone know where I can get axle seals from? My trans is leaking from the axle seals and they're on b/o from dodge. Anyone know if someone makes aftermarket ones or something?

I just ordered two a couple weeks ago at the dealer. Only one came in though. I guess this could have me worried that the other may be on back order. I hope not I wanna get this thing put together some year.

is it common for them to leak?
my driver side one is leaking

usually they go out if you have the axles out, reinstall them & are rough during the process ... it's pretty easy to bend the metal piece on the seal which will then cut the actual seal, causing a leak

As uncommon said, it's quite common for them to go out when you remove and re-install the axles.

I bought one at Pep Boys once....haven't used it yet though, so can't tell you if it was any good or not!
