Hey all, I've started to refurb a 8 3/4 housing I've had lying around for a while. I banged out all the studs and twisted off the brake line vent/tee, next I'm gunna sandblast the outside and paint it. Question is, is this piece in the axle tube supposed to stay in or is it removable/replaceable? What's it called? Pic included.

Axle seal, Dr, Diff has them to sell, but they are not listed on his site. DoctorDiff Drivetrain Components

I use a long steel pipe to knock them out from the far side, but there are also pullers made that are less crude.
 
Thanks Alaskan_TA! Now to jerry rig something to get these puppies out.
 
spray a little juice on them and they pop right out. new ones are readily available, inner axle seal, 1960 or so - 1972 8.75"
