What is the secret to tightning the timkins? Would you tighten them like a front wheel bearing? I removed mine and I could turn the adjuster with my fingers like it had no means to lock. The bearing still looks good after 80K. I guess they are originals. I ordered new ones before I looked at mine but some are saying they last even longer? I am doing a complete resto so I probably ought to replace them right?

Hi Dr.diff and all.

A-body 8-3/4 axle, (shafts from you).
Had a Yukon shaft failure with an old style sure-grip!
The clutches slipped on one side and tore the end off the shaft???
I see the engagement into the inner drive gear is only around 3/16's of an inch.
Is this a common fault with the split gear early locker???
I see the new style track-lok I got form you has a one piece side gear.
Will it be ok to re-use the shaft with the new track-lok?
Also heard different opnions on the inner axle seal?
Leave it in or take it out, to stop overheating of the greens???

Thanks from England, Gtxjon.
