RE: B Body tapered axle inner seals



Yes, I agree. I bought one off of Ebay that looked like the one shown in the
Mopar service manual, but it's too big. I may make one. The one from the
parts store is just too small in diameter, cannot help but disfigure the
seal as I drive it in, no matter how much I try to work around the
perimeter. /Butch

Not much to say, except that you need a driver that is slightly smaller than
the seal.
Only slightly.
