TS4807 Dana 60 Inner Axle Seal Installer Tool Set, Fixed Depth

TS4807 Ford Super Duty Dana 60 Tool Set with QT1128 Fixed Depth Seal Installer is specific to 1999-2010 Super Duty Dana 60 and Dana Super 60 4x4 front axles, but it will also install optional QU40244 Inner axle Seals with Slingers in 2011 and newer Super Duty axles as well. TS4807 includes CNC Precision Machined Custom Made Installation Tools to service QU Inner Axle Oil Seals on 1999-2018 Ford 4x4s with Dana Spicer Model 60 and Super 60 front drive axles. TS4807 Inner Axle Tool Set installs QU40244 Seals (sold separately) and tool will stop when the seal is at the original depth.

This Tool Set will quickly and easily press in your new, original equipment, Inner Axle Seals without damage because the CNC Precision Machined Installation Tool cups the seal so force is only applied on the outer shell. Tools Made in Montana, U.S.A. We spec all our tools to the exact dimensions of the original equipment parts. Our Tools may or may not fit aftermarket parts!

Also available for 1999-2004 Super Duty® trucks is our optional, color illustrated, step-by-step Tech Service Bulletin TSB4643. The TSB4643 applies specifically to Ford Excursion and 1999-2004 Super Duty®. For 2005-2016 Super Duty® trucks, Inner Seal Replacement is identical but disassembly and reassembly is a little different as far as the hub and rotors.

Save money & time by buying the Seals with the Tool Set! See QK4807 web page for Kit with Seals.

QT1130 Dana 60 Thrust Plate
QTA1133 Press Screw Assembly

Tech Note 2: Must Remove
Your brakes, wheel hubs, axle shafts, and differential must be removed from the housing to replace your QU40244 Inner Axle Shaft Seals. For Ford 1999-2004 Super Duty®, please refer to these 4x4 Tech Publications for service procedures:
TSB4643 Includes 5 pages of Step-by-Step procedures with 17 full-color photographs. Covers axle shaft removal, inner axle seal replacement, axle shaft reassembly, differential oil specs, differential gear backlash, torque specs and wrench sizes for fasteners. Explains in text and photos how to change the Inner Axle Shaft Oil Seals located next to the differential. Includes detailed axle shaft oil seal replacement procedures, tool recommendations, and torque specifications that you need to correctly perform inner seal replacement plus check the gear backlash on your Ford Excursion or 1999-2004 Ford F250, F350, F450, or F550 Super Duty® 4x4 Dana Spicer Model 50 or Model 60 front axle. *Note: The TSB4643 only applies specifically to Ford Excursion and 1999-2004 Super Duty®. For 2005 and newer Super Duty trucks, Inner Seal Replacement is identical. The disassembly and reassembly are different as far as the hub and rotors.
TM4637 Front Axle Tech Manual for Ford Excursion and 1999-2004 Super Duty is a 17 page, color illustrated, step-by-step printed shop repair manual that includes our four Tech Service Bulletins plus Front Axle Exploded Views. TM4637 covers: Front Hub Service (TSB4594), Axle Shaft Service (TSB4610), Ball Joint Service (TSB4591), and Inner Axle Seal Replacement Service (TSB4643), including torque specs all in one manual.
TM4688 4x4 Hub, Axle Shaft, Ball Joint, and Axle Shaft Seal Service Manual includes 76 full color printed tech pages with precise and detailed service instructions, plus a color photo for every step. (Includes all info in TM4637.) Close to 400 color photographs, color Exploded Views and Parts Guide. Comprehensive service information for replacing Front Axle Shaft Oil Seals, Axle Universal Joints, Ball Joints, Knuckle Seals, Axle Shaft Needle Bearings, Wheel Hubs, and Hub locks. Also covers basic Front Brake Service. Additionally includes complete torque specs, and tool recommendations.

Tech Note 3: Depth Stop Installer
TS4807 uses QT1128 Model 60 specific Depth Stop Seal Installer which has a raised flange on it that will stop against the axle bore face when the seal is at the correct depth. This is a more fool-proof setup than our adjustable depth Tools Set TS4644, but it's a little more expensive and you cannot use this Installer on a Model 50 axle. Choose TS4807 for simplicity & even quicker installation!

Tech Note 4: 4x4 Tech Publications
QU40244 Seal is item 35 in the Differential Parts Full Color Exploded View that is included in these 4x4 Tech Publications for Ford Excursion and 1999-2004 Super Duty®: TM4637, and TM4688.

Tech Note 5: Removing Old Seals
Once the axle is disassembled, the old seals can be easily removed with our QK4647 Seal Remover Tool Set or another suitable tool such as a length of sturdy pipe that will fit inside the axle tube and oil guide. You will also need to clean the inside of the axle tube to remove dirt and crud that could get pushed into your new seal during reassembly. For 1999-2004 vehicles, QK4647 is made it fit through QU20039 Plastic Axle Shaft Guides which are located in the axle tubes just outboard of the inner axle shaft oil seals.

Tech Note 6: Inspection
When replacing your inner axle seals, ALWAYS inspect your Ball Joints, Axle Universal Joints, Differential Bearings, Outer Axle Shaft Support Bearing, and Wheel Hubs for wear or damage. The extra time needed to replace these components is minimal since you already have the axle apart to do the axle seals. Also, the large diameter seals on each outer axle shaft are not reusable and must be replaced with a new one using a special tool to prevent water infiltration and/or vacuum loss.

Tech Note 7: 2011 Model Year
Effective with the 2011 model year, Ford replaced QU40244 Inner Axle Shaft Seal supplied in the Kits on this page, and which features an integral oil slinger on the diff side plus a generous axle shaft guide on the outboard side with QU20463 Seal that has no slinger and only a small shaft guide. Functionally, the seals are interchangeable on 1999 to current Ford Dana 50, Dana 60, and Dana Super 60 front axles, but they do require different installers. Personally, I prefer the earlier QU40244 Seal, but they are both high-quality oil bath seals that will keep oil in your diff for years if properly installed.

If you would prefer QU20463 Seal, the correct Installer is QT1222 which is available separately or in these Tool Sets and Kits for Ford:
TS4982 Tool Only Set for 1999-2005 Dana 50
QK4982 Inner Axle Seal and Tool Set for 1999-2005 Dana 50
