Dana 44 rebuild
First of all, I know this would probably go best in the 4x4 section, but I generally get a better response here. I am in there process of rebuilding my factory Dana 44 front axel on my 72 K5. I have everything pulled apart except for the carrier assembly which I just assume leave alone if possible (everything seems clean and in good shape). I have some experience with rear axels, but this is my first time to be any deeper than the hubs of a 4x4 front. Anyway, there is a seal inside the housing (#31 on the diagram) that I am confused about. Is this seal just outside of the bearings, or is it farther out on the tube towards the hub? Do I need to remove the carrier assembly to change this out or is it done from the hub side?
