Rear axle seal track repair kits?

[timjsparrow]

Does anybody know where I can get hold of some rear axle seal track repair kits?

[simmitc]

Do you mean a sleeve kit to fit over the axle tube? They are available from specialist suppliers (not usually Minor Traders), I'll see if I can find the part number.

I'm told their called 'Speedi Sleeves'. Their for going inside the worn axle shaft to create a sleeve into which the seal can be placed to stop it from leaking.

Did mine recently its a speedi sleeve part no CR99174
I got mine from these people as they have a branch close to me http://www.brt-bearings.com/1024x768/map.html but any local bearing supplier should be able to get you one.

Thanks alot. I've just found some on http://simplybearings.co.uk.

I presume that its the imperial size I need?

Depends whether your micrometer is metric or imperial!
