I like to polish on them with some scotchbrite and lightly lube before install as sometimes a light burr can be present. Also, these seals are rather fragile and can be damaged if not installed just right. Add to that you can get dud seals. Before install, you need to get all the old sealant (stuff that looks like paint) out of there. The seal must be put in as gently and straight as possible. Look at the back of the seal to ensure the spring is securely in place, not loose or missing. I find them more often than I wish I did. Lastly, make sure your pinion bearing preload is right and the pinion bearings themselves are good. If the bearings are loose it will damage the seal and leak again. On the upside, its a cheap seal and easy to put in. brianpam User Apr 30, 2010, 9:03 AM Post #3 of 3 (1367 views) Re: 2000 silverado 1/2 ton Sign In thank u...much appreciated   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
