Yes. THanks for the photo and specific seal location. Probably a good idea to replace the seal while axle is removed.

When I took my '51 into my mechanic and when I had my '55 towed in, I gave my mechanic a spare FSM for both and how to access this website. I told them I wanted everything stated in the book done to both as far a major periodic service. Now not only do I have no worries about those parts; taking them apart allowed for inspection as well. I was pleased to find out that all the bearings on both of my Packards were fine, though the pinion seal on the '55 needed to be replaced.

WHILE drivers side axle shaft is REMOVED then clear the axle vent BEFORE axle shaft is replaced:

Jim L. That vent description applies to 56 ONLY! NOT 55's.
