Half shaft seal?

Yes used a genuine one.
I thought maybe the hub nut wasn’t torqued enough so have tighten that up. But it still leaks. The only thing I can think is to try again with a cheaper one.
Just hassle and wasted time though.

if it still leaks after changing them you havnt seated the correctly, how did you knock them in ?

idealy you need a big socket to knock them in flush thats the same size as the outer edge

Hi,
I just taped it in with a hammer. It went in nice and square and went all the way in.
I borrowed a mates torque wrench, that I thought was suitable for left hand thread, to check that it wasn’t just the hub nut.
Turns out it wasn’t suitable and so now I’m worried I’ve over torque the nut and damaged the bearing. The torque wrench broke so it’s over the 450nm unless it was faulty to being with.
Turning into a pain in the arse

That’s good to know. Been looking at the cost of torque wrenchs that are big enough and work in both direction. Wasn’t sure I could bring my self to do it
