    has anyone used these rear diff seals?

    so im about to take on replacing a diff seal on an axle shaft.. due to a bag getting wrapped around my right axle and getting sucked into the diff.. ive never seen this happen before but my luck, something like this happens..
    its he only one any parts store had in stock at the time so i got it. had to go to o'rielys.

    It will be fine. Never heard of a plastic bag doing that to an axle, but I knew of someone who had a plastic bag wrap around their Miata's crank pulley and lock their engine. Ever since I heard that, I avoid running them over floating across the road.

    I avoid them because my dad ran one over once, and it got caught on the exhaust. It melted on the exhaust and smelled so bad!
