Yes, there is another seal (same pn as used in axle housing) in the front of the torque tube. I usually replace all three of these seals at the same time. What I should have said in my earlier post is...I use that 1/2" all thread extension to lengthen the pusher enough to remove the seal and an outer bearing sleeve, that's in the front of the torque tube, at the same time by coming in from the back/banjo end of the torque tube. This brings that outer bearing sleeve out without damaging it. I like to reuse those old bearing sleeves because the replacements being sold today are mostly junk.
Note: to do the above, the outer diameter of the aluminum pusher plug (or whatever you use) must be small enough to pass through the seal locating flange that's inside the front of the torque tube.
