In section 1

page 22 figure 6-2 shows the axle tube retainer.
[ shows the nuts being removed from it. ]
as I said the flange on the edges of mine, actually comes out as shown
in the picture, but then folds back flat about 1/2" out.

page 23 figure 6-7 shows an "original style" axle boot being installed
into the retainer.  In that photo you can see two of the rivet / weld 
like things
that are the things that seem to be leaking.  even looking at one apart
in the mechanics garage I couldn't quite tell what those rivet / weld 
like things
were about.
