Very smart move on changing both seals.

No it is a locker when engaged. There is no slip when it is engaged. That is why so many become broken. Thank you. I hope it all works out for you. Be Safe. Glad I could assist. Straight 80/90 works. its all I ever use. I change gear oil annually.

I can see the C clips in the top photo. After the big pin is pulled out you only have to push the axle in slightly and gently to get them to fall out. Use a dab of wheel bearing grease to reinstall and have a helper tug the axle outward when you have it seated. Use a straight screwdriver if the...

Don't. DO NOT. remove the pinion gears. Roll that up with the bolt down. Remove the lock bolt. The pin will slide out with a mild coaxing. DO NOT roll the gears. I use my finger to keep them in alignment. Roll the gear slightly so you can see the C clips. I pull the big pin. Roll the gear ever...

Please get the correct brake lining for the drums you have on the M1009. I would hate to see anyone get hurt / killed and find out an investigation revealed that the incorrect brake shoes where installed on the vehicle. Liability and for the $30. brake shoes and an hours labor the incorrect...
