Re: $250 for switching R&P in banjo rear
There was an excellent and very informative article (with many pictures) posted on The Hamb a while ago.

Quote:
1: Keep differential oil out of the rear wheel bearings and- 2: Giving the wheel bearing grease (if overpressurized from heat or ill advised use of the zerk fitting) a place to go other than out to the brakes. IMHO

Re: $250 for switching R&P in banjo rear
The lip seals point towards the center of the rear end, their purpose is to keep the lighter liquid grease from going into the hubs and diluting the heavier wheel bearing grease there. The hub seals keep that heavy grease from getting out on your brake drums but will not do a good job of stoping the lighter liquid grease if it gets out there.

Re: $250 for switching R&P in banjo rear
Well I guess I learned something new! I have yet to tear into my rear end because it came from a running car. Although I would love to upgrade it to later splined axles as depicted in the latest R&C magazine.
