I am installing the G2 1 piece axle on an AMC20 in a 1978 CJ5. The instructions show the Outer Seal outside of the Protective Guard. This seems backwards. Mine was assembled like the Ten instructions show. Seems impossible to go together the way the G2 instructions show.
Also, am I right that the backing plate will now preload the axle bearing due to the bearing now sticking out .02"-.06"?
