Ok, I received the parts and everything actually matches as far as I can tell. Now looking at the new seal, it looks like the little rubber part with the spring was the remnants of the
old seal which must've fell out and off. the only thing remaining attached was the metal dust shield.
TONS of play when jiggling the old yoke in the old bushing and pitting at the yoke. But new yoke and bushing are much tighter. In fact, too tight to insert the yoke when I installed the new bushing.
Questions:
1. I plan on bringing the new yoke and the extension housing with new bushing to a machine shop to hone the bushing so the yoke will slide in (it currently won't go in). Is that the proper thing to do? Are there specs somewhere for this?
2. For the rear seal, I don't have any reference as to how the seal is to be put in (since the old one was destroyed). There's 3 pieces- a rubberish seal, a felt seal, and a dust cover. Which orientation does the rubber seal go in to the extension housing?
Left one is the rubber seal. Does it go in the housing this way?
Or this way?
Thanks for all your help!
