Hi Lynn,
The seal stops any axle oil getting through to the gearbox, there being no seal in the back of the box either. Considering this was a pre-war axle the housing was actually machined as if to take a seal, but we had it machined out to the size in the modification sheet and I had a metal cased leather seal made. another thing is that the female splined coupling was already polished where the seal runs, so looks like they had this in mind to do.

regards, Richard
