Ugghhh…so I swapped out a leaking axle seal and now I have a pretty good gear whine going on. And maybe it’s paranoia, but I swear it sounds like it’s getting worse. Sound started right after replacing a seal on the left side. The half shaft came out no issues, tapped in the new seal, back together no issues. Axle nut torqued down properly and it’s staying in place.
I’ve had the hub apart a couple times for other projects and never had an issue. Also there were no issues getting the half shaft in and out. I got no idea on this one, nor any clue why this job would cause it to start whining.
Just trying to think out loud of things to check or what you might do to address this. I even thought about taking it back apart and putting it right back together just to try something. Idk. What do you guys think?
