Got my 69 home and pulled the hub off the D53, had a spun key stock. :(

My question is does anyone have a picture of how it is suppose to be assembled?
I know how to put it back togeather, but all of the seals are gone and I need to know where they belong and need a picture with a break down peice by peice of the hub and seal area. I need it to take to the parts store so I can make sure I get the right seals and such. They say they carry some of them.

Anyone have this?????

i only remember seeing one seal on mine, wher the axle comes out of the housing. it must be okay, just did a 500 mile trip. does anyone know if it is possible for there to be two different setups on d53's? i sorta doubt it.

I wasnt sure if there was more than one, at this time there is none. Is it one made right into that cone peice that bolts on the axle housing? I found the parts store has a Haynes manual, so I am gonna pick one up and see if it gives me the break down I need. Thanks

seems like it was a regular type axle seal...probably a standard item shared with a dozen other rigs.

Well wen to the local parts store to see what they have, they had to order it, so I will see if it is right when it gets here I guess. The dealer just laughed at me, but was able to get my fuel sending unit for my 77, not a bad price even $44 and no shipping. Guess you win some and lose some
