QK4644 Inner Axle Seal and Tool Kit for Ford 1999-Current Dana 60 and Super 60 Front Axles include QU40244 seals with slinger that are specific to 1999-2010, but the same tool and seals work equally well on 2011 to current Dana Super 60 axles in F250, F350, F450, and F550 4x4s. QK4644 uses QT1126 Dana 50/60 Inner Axle Seal Installer which does not have a depth stop. You have to watch how deep you install the seal. See Tech Note 3 Below! See QK4807 Fixed Depth Kit includes our QT1128 Model 60 only Seal Installer with a depth stop which will stop when your new seal is installed to the original depth. Also available for 1999-2004 Super Duty® trucks is our optional, color illustrated, step-by-step Tech Service Bulletin TSB4643 (not included in kit). The TSB4643 applies specifically to 1999-2004 Super Duty®. For 2005 and newer Super Duty® trucks, Inner Seal Replacement is identical but disassembly and reassembly is a little different as far as the hub and rotors.

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.

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: When Installing Seals The inner axle seals used on 1999 and newer Model 50 and 60 Ford front axles are interchangeable, however, the depth the seals are installed in the housing is different. With the QK4644 Kit, you get QT1126 Adjustable Depth Seal Installer which is made to work with both Model 50 and 60 axles. It's less expensive, but you have to know when the seal is at the correct depth. To get the correct seal depth when using QT1126 with a Model 60 axle do this: Before you take out the old seals, place QT1126 Seal Installer in the old seal and scribe a mark on the tool at the axle bore face. During installation, just press the seal in until the scribed mark lines up with the bore face and your new seal is installed to the correct depth! If you want to use QK4644 on a Dana 50 axle, you will also need optional QT1129 Dana 50 Thrust Plate. Choose QK4644 Kit for price and versatility, keeping in mind you have to stop pressing the seal in when it is to the correct depth. However, YOU MUST be careful you do not set the seal TOO DEEP which may place the seal beyond the axle shaft seal surface! Tech Note 4: 4x4 Tech PublicationsQU40244 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: Seal Remover Tool 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: When Replacing 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.QU40233 1999-2002 Outer Axle Shaft to Knuckle SealQU20035 2003-2004 Outer Axle Shaft to Knuckle SealQT1515 Axle to Knuckle Seal Installer 1999-2004QK4610 1999-2002 Hub and Knuckle Seal Kit with QT1515QK4846 2003-2004 Hub and Knuckle Seal Kit with QT1515QU20052 2005-2016 Outer Axle Shaft Knuckle SealTS1530 Axle to Knuckle Seal Installer for 2005-2016 F250, F350TS1531 Axle to Knuckle Seal Installer for 2005-2016 F450, F550QK4678 2005-2016 F250, F350 Hub and Knuckle Seal Kit with TS1530QK4681 2005-2016 F450, F550 Hub and Knuckle Seal Kit with TS1531 Tech Note 7: Effective in 2011 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 50QK4982 Inner Axle Seal and Tool Set for 1999-2005 Dana 50TS4983 Tool Only Set for 1978-current Dana 60, Dana Super 60QK4983 Inner Axle Seal and Tool Set for 1978-current Dana 60, Dana Super 60 Tech Note 8: Available Tool Sets Already have the Seals?
