I am replacing my rear wheel bearings with "repair bearings". The instructions say to install with the seal on the outside but it seems there is a seal on both sides of the bearing. Due to the built in o-ring that runs along the diameter, it seems the protruding seal faces inward...

I have an open differential (non-LSD)- owners manual call for 80w90 but i notice in many explorer threads that 75w140 is being used even in the open differentials. Is this advisable? By the way, I'm changing the oil to try to eliminate rear end noise. Thanks

After that i went down there to check for any leaks and it was leaking gear oil out of the front...
