[T3] Swing axle bearing seals


Today I put the subframe, tranny and engine back in the crate, but one of
the axle seals is running like a stream out the weep hole.  At first I
thought maybe I didnt compress the Orings by not torquing the axle nuts yet,
but I did and its still running out.

Is this an area that "has issues" with the swing axle cars?  is it perhaps
cheap aftermarket seal kits that I used?  things seemed to go togeather OK
but boy! its really pissin out.

Any thoughts?
