What make of axles did you use?

I believe they were DSS -whatever the brand is here on pelican parts.

if I understand,
- you re-used the same spacer your homo axles had originally?

Yes

- you installed in one piece

Yes

- you retorqued each bolt. (using Loctite? What torque?)

I applied loctite but I doubt it made it through the bore without coming off in the grease. I have m10 bolts, so I torqued to 70nm. The value is different for m12 bolts, however. Info is in this post: http://www.peachparts.com/shopforum/diesel-discussion/405072-annular-axle-seeping.html

- re-used existing diff seals?

Sure did


I recall you previously used the 3M 5200 that I used. Did it ever fail? Mine has worked well, but there are now new cracks on larger diameter end near inner can where it maybe flexes more. Could re-seal, but seems it is now time for new axles or boots!
