And the lock ring too. I didn't find any listing for pinion seal though. I do believe they are smaller in the 1/2t?
And so far as the outer seal, so many modern vehicles don't use them that I figure they are unnecessary with modern lube oils. I did re-install them with the leather parts removed, just to act as slingers. You do need to pack the bearings with wheel bearing grease in re-assmebly though, since there is no other way to lube them until the gear oil gets sloshed out to the ends. I just don't worry about two oils, both used for similar bearings, intermixing. Try researching a modern Dana 60 system?
