I have searched archives but havent been able to answer my questions. I'm finally getting around to changing rear diff pinion seal in my 62 M37. I have pulled the yoke and took a chisel and screwdriver and pulled out what appears to be an outer felt seal thats about 2 3/8"-2 1/2" in dia. Is the actual "seal" behind this? Is the actual seal about 4" in dia? It looks to me like the seal is 4" in dia. but I didnt want to pull that out if I didnt need to. I also want to replace seal with a modern seal. Is there a modern seal that will fit in place of the felt seal? If I have to I am willing to machine an adapter to accept a differnt "modern" seal. I just wanted to check with you guys and see if any of you have done this. Any help/advice will be greatly greatly appreciated!
Thanks
M.Long
