oooops! what if...

I have bought 2 axle sets (4 bearing sets )from roughtrax and none of them had the o ring, I reused the old utilising a bit of silicone as insurance, it aint leaked yet. I do happen to think that they should be included in the bearing kit, but once you got it stripped it's a bit late if you rely on your truck!!

well i did it all earlier leaving the brakes intact and it seems to seal so far. what sort of oil should I use for the diff (not LSD)
