That's what my neighbor was telling me, just wanted to be sure that it was something that other Packard owners have done/approve of. I really don't want to mess something up and have to replace my whole rear axle housing.

Lots of guys online suggest using Loctite 660, but I'm not sure how well I'd be able to keep the axle housing and race clean when inserting the axle. Surface needs to be kept clear from oil or moisture.

I'll see if my neighbor has a center punch, and go from there.

How tight is the race supposed to be? When I reinstalled the passenger axle, I had to tap the race into place using a hammer, but I certainly wasn't hitting hard.
