Rear axle seal leak into drum brake

[Dano]

ok ,well done (bit by bit). Do I replace the lot or what's needed you ask?

is your van a keeper?
did it hum or make any warb warbwarbwarb noises?
are you running 10' wide rims?

well then I would , but

if cash is tight/useable elsewhere
no noises
no big rims , well then no need + if any thing does creep up in the near future you know what to do!     DA DAAAA.....

well done cobb    ..... enjoy, oh why not suck the old oil out of your diff, and or don't forget to top it up.......till it just weeps out of the filler grub screw/bolt. should be a 1/2" drive....Dano

in pic1 it's a black seal about a 1 cm wide, probably 3/4 of it is on metal then it extends a bit into the void, towards diff. I didn't want to damage it but it was quite easier to grab the inside lip and pull to the outside, it seemed to like it would peel off OK.

I can't see any damage anywhere, resulting in a leak. I might visit a shop and give them the axle to squizz.

Can't help you I'm afraid, my beddie has holden front discs, transmission, & engine... I'm guessing the rear axle/drums are original??

I'd check to see if that ain't a Holden diff as well, that backing plate looks like a salisbury, I'm not sure what the cfs's looks like

That Backing plate does not look like 9" bedford 9' in the first photo, and your bearing is not Bedford, no O ring

[Dano]

Brakes look ford to me, what's ur stud pattern?

11" ford galaxie brakes.

Yep, Cheers Dano

here's mine;

Have just dropped my diff and removed an axle and mine is exactly the as Baz
only external seal is the big O ring on the outside of the bearing and my beddy brakes look nothing like your photo

[Bas / NZ]

here's mine;

Ok this is a 10" drum, going by the setup but has a few little extra bits in there on the ajustment etc., that is if it is standard Bedford. I took the 9" apart, and wasen't  sure if all was right, then pulled the 10" apart and the only seal is the O ring on the bearing, so as they are both the same, I am happy that all is right.............

looks like my Diff...or at least the axles n brakes do..Holden..
