Did a part 2 video on this . Finally solved the issue I was having with early to mid 60s for the 7-1/4 rear end axle shaft seals . found out though much internet searching and measurements since O'reallys said that the axle seals are not available that the axle seals for a 1965 Ford Falcon 9"rear axle fits the 7-1/4 axles and housing tubes. the only differnt is the width on the metal shell . its a couple of hairs narrower then the Mopar ones . precision bearings & seals part # 9569S I imagine standard seals or Timken has same seals with different part number . hope this helps people .

Possible benifit to it being narrower....

If it installed to a positive stop, the sealing surfaces now rides on a slightly different part of the axle shaft seal surface.


What year are you searching for?

Tapered axle?

Found this, but it doesn't say which specific axle. Says fits 64 dart with slant 6 up engine?

The original Chrysler # is 2404052 for 1963 thru 1969 abodies. Many on eBay, both original Chrysler and aftermarket. Also you can search 2404052 on rockauto.
