Mash Posted May 19 Share Posted May 19 Hello, Does anyone know what axle I have fitted in the photos? I have oil seals GHS111 and GHS184, neither fit. The hub bearing is 411546 which appears to have an oil seal on the back of it. I have no oil seal between the axle and the sleeve the hub bearing appears to be seated on. The previous owner appears to have filled the gap with silicon. many thanks for any help you can give Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldAndrewE Posted May 19 Share Posted May 19 From what I can see in the photos that looks like a Ford English axle. What is the pcd of the wheel studs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Area Representative Paul Richards Posted May 19 Area Representative Share Posted May 19 It looks like a Ford English axle to me. If it’s 108mm PCD that would confirm it. So would a picture of the diff. Previous owner did things right. Smear some silicon into the axle where the bearing sits before inserting the halfshafts. This stops oil leaking between the outer of the bearing and the axle case. I used to race stock cars using this axle and we changed diffs all the time and there would be leaks unless silicon was used. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mash Posted May 19 Author Share Posted May 19 Many thanks for the replies. The PCD is 108. Picture of the diff number. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OldAndrewE Posted May 19 Share Posted May 19 Certainly a Ford axle. The only seal is the one in the bearing, the additional silicone as Paul said is a good idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
