Lee, Yes, It's a 8&3/4 the FSM mentions using shims or
shim packs that come in different thicknesses to
adjust the axle end play, are these shims still available?
The manual also mentions some special tools?
I remember replacing an axle seal many, many years
ago. Had a mechanic friend help me, don't remember it
being that big of a deal except the pulling of the drum
which I have a puller for now. Is there a simple way
to adjust the end play or does every thing have to come
apart? Sometimes I have a hard time with the service manual's
vernacular and the way it assumes you know or know how to do
certain things.

thanks
Schuyler
