no c clips on a stock 65 442 8.2. in order to change the seals you will have to remove (change)the bearings.hopefully they aren't leaking because the bearings are bad and are moving on the axle.that can be a problem

yes,but were they born there? I am inclined to say YES! These were pretty original 65 442's and they were Oldsmobile 3:55 posi rearends. |
