i sleeved these driveshaft ends - but the sleeves are , at the max, only a couple mm wider than the contact points of the double lip seals. Might have to re-sleeve with double sleeves side by side, to ensure one (or both) of the lips arent riding on and off the sleeve from being too "close to the edge", yes?

I still have a hand full of NOS gaskets for Axles.


Trans, inner seals at Axle.. Machine shaft and install a seal with a smaller inside dia.. THis I can get!

I wonder if those gaskets would expand back to the correct size if you put them in hot water for a minute. I know that works for the large water transmission gasket. Perhaps soaking the gasket in light oil might work. I suspect whoever made these gaskets didn't allow for the shrinkage of the paper as the new paper dried out in storage. These are the kinds of issues you sometimes find with reproduction parts.
