The driver-side seal is located next to the differential carrier, but the passenger-side seal lives deep inside the long right-hand axle tube, situated directly adjacent to the vacuum shift fork and sliding collar assembly. Over decades of service, heavy trail riding, or routine hub and U-joint maintenance, these seals naturally harden, crack, or get cut by the sharp splines of an axle shaft during re-insertion. When they fail, expensive differential fluid escapes into the tubes, starves the ring and pinion gears, and can pool inside the CAD disconnect box—wreaking havoc on your vacuum shift actuators.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-path-to-node=\"9\"\u003eThis original equipment manufacturer (OEM) master service package supplies both the left-hand and right-hand factory-spec inner seals to overhaul the axle's primary fluid boundaries simultaneously.
