To Packard V8:
We have over 100,000 seals in stock, none of them interchange with the Packard pinion seals in Packard1's post. Recently we had a customer who needed a rear trans seal for a mid-30's Studebaker. We sold the three we had and did everything to find an interchange, and we have almost every conceivable reference book. None to be found. Yes there are some seals that interchange with 100 numbers from vehicle manufacturers and other seal manufacturers, but if there were 150 numbers that would solve every seal need the world would be a better place. Suggest you stick to telling us that in-tank electric fuel pumps are ten times the size of a regular fuel pumps and other such brilliance. While you're at it,tell me the bed-time fairy tale that those pumps put out so much heat that they cause vapor lock. Enough is enough.

West, don't know if I could easily find it again but there is data on the Timken site about seal life for various substances as a function of shaft surface speed, finish, and eccentricity. It did include leather... Dave & West, --> this way please to the Timken specification. Leather is mentioned on page 17 (section 1B / VII) and on page 25 (section 1C / XV).

 Quote: ...PackardV8 gives a very good caution about sandblasting. If my differential were performing well and was quiet, I wouldn't think of upsetting the contact pattern of the ring and pinion by diassembling the internals. And without removing every last internal part, I wouldn't think of letting it anywhere near a sandblaster. Keith & Dave, not on any terms! BTW "to throw a wrench in the works" in my neck of the woods means "to throw sand into the gearbox". But Ken is talking about surface rust. So how about dry ice blasting? <iframe width="425" height="349" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/7UQXeDGU7Do" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> [picture source: www.spiegel.de]
