|
|
Doing a wheel bearing replacement on an HJ60 '89 and the oil seal that goes on the inside of the heel bearing is a metal housed rubber seal. on one side of the metal housing it is flat, on the other side there's a raised ring of metal that goes all the way round
When all mounted up, should it be flat side facing the engine, or the other way round/flat side facing out?
Thanks guys |

In the FSM it looks like the flat surface faces the engine,but the diagram is not the clearest, nor does it mention anything about which way it goes. _________________ 1995 HZJ75 troop carrier

l assume you mean the seal iside the steering knuckle,the flat side needs to face outwards towards the wheel...done this job a few times,use the best quality seal you can get,but dont be surprised if it leaks a bit,you may not be able to feel or see it ,but there WILL be a very slight groove where the seal bears on the axle,dont worry the oil will find it!!!! |
