axle seal install

Ordered zzp stage 1 for my base model, good idea to install new seals as well? Looking at the trans beforehand there are no leaks or fluids seen around the shafts.

You need a seal puller.

Also it makes it a lot easier is you have a socket the exact size of the out part of the seal. I got a piece of pvc pipe that fits perfect, just helps them drive in straight and saves a bunch of time.

Btw zzp stage one arent really any better than stock so i wouldnt replace them until you break them

N/a with minor bolt ons, not makinguch for power, but if I did want to launch it, would the zzp axels snap like the stock ones?

My 07 LS is turbo and ive never broken an axle. Stage 3 clutch, many clutch dumps.

I just use parts store axles when they go bad from being low
