Thanks David.

As a side note, I have found that NO seal on the market today is a direct replacement for the front diff seal. So I am ordering one from MM.

I know $45 isn't exactly breaking the bank, but it's expensive for a seal, so I wanted to check. Also not super fond of the "felt in front of a single lip seal" tech but oh well.

The reason why is because Packard took a regular seal and shoved it in a formed metal case. So the OD is completely nonstandard. So unless you want to cut open the old one with a Dremel and reuse the case, you will get nowhere.
