BOOHOO your Ford F250 F350 is Leaky, again 😔| 4x4 front DIFF seals - Find out HOW TO

Do YOU have this common leak on the front axle? What up SUPERDUTY gang?!?! Glad to be back. My co worker had a job on his ticket that required him to replace the front 4x4 diff seals. This can easily be checked be looking at the end of the axle tube where the axle shaft goes in. If its wet, its leaking. You must get the ok and start some tear down.

If you don't have the special tool, a long piece of 3/8" All-Thread, 2- 3/8" nuts, 2- 3/8" washers , a seal driver kit from Harbor Freight is all you need. Use the all-thread rod to pull the seal into place by going in from the knuckle end. Use 2 seal installer dies from the HF kit that are the appropriate diameter to fit the seal and one to fit the other end of the axle tube by the knuckle. Hope that's clear.

[@SCPfourfiftyfour]

HF Kit?

[@mgrosser2197]

Have done TONS of those. Home made installer out of 1" all thread and plate steel The Napa 15553 seal is actually a better design than Ford OE in my opinion in cold climates it's a good idea to clean all the factory grease from them and pack them full of grease stabile down to -30 or better. the factory grease solidifies when cold and the rubber lip seal area tears

[@CPsGarage]

Done a few. I had the 15" c clamp to spread the case makes taking the center section in and out super easy. Almost no prying needed

[@andrewsimmons2694]

If you do this job then I would say just buy the tool. No point in half assing it.

[@johnmclaren7059]

Fantastic and very informative! Will that spreader tool work on a 1997 f350 Dana 60?

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

Yep

[@scottstone4948]

Another thing is the tool puts the seal in the proper location. I have super duty axles in my jeep, and without the tool the first time, I had to pull it apart and redo it. I was not a happy camper.

[@ronanderson1816]

Try 4-ounces of AT-250 per diff to keep the seals soft and long lasting! also works on engine seals, power steering and floor jacks

[@jasonpinter8959]

Did my 2002. Quite the job if you have auto hubs. Best to have all the right tools so it's done right the first time.

[@workingant5273]

Looks like a piece of all thread Two Nuts and a couple washers would do the job.

[@armedprophet3321]

I hate when KZbin puts a Chevy, GM or Dodge truck commercial in the middle of your videos, they should put only Ford ads on your channel. They obviously do not know you are the King of all things Powerstroke ! All hail the king.

@@ephraemdryer2088 nah, don't give google more $. There's other free ways to circumvent ads. My commercial was for a Ford electric pile. Equally as bad. Diesel, MAGA and PURE BLOOD for life.

[@samuelrivas3943]

Ford doesn't need to run ads. Good product sells itself

[@akbychoice]

A little preventative maintenance goes a long way to avoid these expensive repairs.

[@brianchambers1515]

Slipping a gear wrench over the long nut shaft before putting on end cap makes a speedy replacement... very thorough video good👍🤠

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 we said that but got edited out when we sped on the video speed

[@guagua8268]

If the front diff spinning while hubs are free and in 2wd?

[@TellTheTruth1]

It may be a good idea to put a ratcheting wrench on first.

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

We know...

[@tubewaldo]

I replaced these seals on my 1979 f150 w a Dana 44. Odd size 1.625'' OD / 1.3''' ID. I used a pice of allthread & bearing race driver pucks to serve the same purpuse.

[@timsmothers8740]

I felt your Forearm 🔥 burn all The way down here in Arizona Brother after that 14 thousand wrench flip or so it seemed You had going on there ! But it's nice that it's a Double whammy both in at the same time .

[@georgesrisomsak9650]

I have an 03 7.3 at 293k, still bone dry somehow. I've done a lot of these on the newer trucks though. Nice work, the tool make this easy peazy.

[@BeardedFordTech]

I'm glad all mine are 2wd

[@NursltanAbeuov]

Man, this is very helpful video👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽, my truck broke down on the middle of nowhere, and all dealership and shops booked up 3 weeks ahead, now we are about to replace everything by ourselves. Its hard to find the seals 4-5 days order, and that seal pushing tool need to find.

[@RB.4125]

Do anybody knows what is an estimate cost to replace the seals of Front Differential

[@CodyFink-o4m]

$1400

[@TheRealSlowhand]

I appreciate watching this video A-Rod... Thanks buddy... I need to do this same repair on my F450... I have had the parts for a few months but not looking forward to tackling this big job...

[@eduardoflores2510]

I used a closet pole wrap in tape and punch them out from the side of the axle.

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

Goooooooood idea!!!

[@eduardoflores2510]

Go to Home depot thaey have all the parts to build one for about 25 dollars

Now I want that tool for the hell of it.

I’m about to do those seals While I have it all that open would it hurt to replace the pinion seal since it’s original and it’s a 2013 f-350

Gonna need more tools

[@anthonyc993]

Your a lucky one. My pos 2020 f250 front axle seal squeaks when in 4x4 and the part has been on back order since February.

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

The seal is NOT making it squeak, I can tell you that.....

[@anthonyc993]

@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod once in 4x4 mode it takes a few minutes for it to start making the noise and its a pretty loud squeak coming from the front end for sure. What would you say it might be? Have you seen this before? Dealer says that’s what they narrowed it down to I guess. I have had non stop issues with this truck. It’s sad cause I really enjoy the looks of these ford super duty’s.

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

All that seal does is seal against fluid on a steel shaft. Rubber to steal, 🤔🤔 no squeaky. Now your u joint thats spinning and is netal to metal once theres no more lube.......could be your problem

[@scha0786]

Bet the owner had his hubs locked for 80k miles. This stuff is what you usually see on dodge and jeeps because you can’t free spool the hubs. Good stuff.

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

Yea

[@vais3]

Loose joints take out the seals perhaps? I’ve seen tons of them clog up the axle vents and blow seals. Was pretty rampant on some pipeline rigs that played in the mud frequently.

[@atm1513]

Oh ok nice

[@JeffRuiz-mx4dy]

I’m trying to find that tool but it’s just the spreader bar and not the round seal pusher

[@azeeninety55]

So it's not normal for fluid to come out? I was changing out my hubs and a little bit of fluid came out of there?

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

Ur hubs now. Axle fluid doesn't go to the front hubs...

[@azeeninety55]

@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod sorry I should've been more specific. I'm replacing the vacuum seals on the axle and the fluid came from where the axle sits. On a 99 f250

[@azeeninety55]

@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod just like in video basically but more on the passenger side. Had the vacuum seal bust which caused the manual hub lock bust aswell

[@TheBeatenPaths]

Stupid question......Is there any preventative maintenance that could have avoided this issue?

[@rdp2370]

Not keeping your hubs locked and change your diff. fluid.

[@mattk1358]

How do you get it put back together

[@vincesmith5846]

Talking about the knuckle seal here? Are we referring to floating axles or not? Not sure why you got to pull the damn differential to do..

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

How else are you gonna replace those seals with a differential in the housing......

[@rdp2370]

I wish you could have shown using the case spreader for us. If you don't have a case spreader what's the best way to reinstall the diff?

[@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod]

Set it in and tapped in with a rubner mallet
