I've gone to four different auto parts stores and none of them can find me axle seals or  the end seal gaskets.   

Not in stock, doesn't even give an option to order. 

AutoZone, O'Reilly, Napa, and one more Napa..   

The rear end I'm using is out of a 65 Dodge Coronet, so I had them look up 65, 66 Dodge Coronet, 70 Cuda, 70 Challenger. 

Zero. 

I was hoping to get a jump start on this Swap this weekend, but this is a stupid setback. Either these parts aren't available anymore or I have found all of the idiots on the right day. 

Please advise.   

Picture of seal I want to replace.   
And the gaskets needed for that end flange.

I get mine from MoparDave.  Mancini has them also as well as Doctor Diff.   I doubt you will find or get the correct ones from a local parts store.

NAPA stocks them, you want the part numbers I will get them for you.

Oh heck, here you go...

Seals (2)  Napa #15460, or Timken # 8695S

Gasket (2) Felpro #13800

Gasket (2) Felpro #55032

:wrenching:

That is assuming that the flanges are the same as the later 8.75" axles  ;)

When you are working on something much older than the kid behind the counter, you have to expect that!!!

Yep, that is what the parts books are for; the ones collecting dust in the back room... if they still even have them.  ::)

This always comes to my mind when dealing with local parts stores.

               :haha: :haha: :rofl: :rofl:  The best way to deal with parts stores is look up the part # first, then hand it to the parts guy when you walk in. After the deer in the headlights look, you will get your parts. Do your research first.     :alan2cents:             :rebelflag"

150%.  :iagree:
Or place your order at the local parts  ( advance, pep boys, etc) website to try and speed things up and maybe even get a little discount

Do you know the parts for the axle bearings for a 8.75?

Thanks Ken
