67 - 72 cross shaft seals?
I thought I could just buy the seals, but everyone wants to sell me a kit with new shafts, caps/nuts and the seals. Does anyone just sell a seal? My shafts are in great shape and can't justify the $30 for a total kit.

Re: 67 - 72 cross shaft seals?
I was told that because of the torture the shafts go through, it is highly advisable to replace. I replaced after my "senior" mechanic friend told me it would be best.

Re: 67 - 72 cross shaft seals?
It probably would be better to replace the whole shafts, but you can buy the seals from LMC Truck. I got just the seals for my '64 uppers though and they weren't a very good fit. Shoulda just done the whole assembly.

Thanks for the input guys. Hard to believe a 1.5" diameter shaft could need replacing, but it is 40+ yrs. old.
