Axle flange gaskets

[cudafstbk]

Hi Guys...thanks for so much awesome info...currently putting my 8 3/4 back together for our 69 Bcuda Fb..couldn't find a good diagram in my service manual on how the axle flange/backing plate gaskets go...the foam one and a thin one thats like metal/fibre???

between flange and backing plate.

Here's the order of assembly,

1. Metal/fiber gasket
2. Backing plate
3. White foam gasket
4. Axle retainer plate (with axle of course)

Sorry this is not the correct order, see the Dr's post below
This is how I interpret the assembly order per manual ...........
nuts
brake back plate
foam gasket
bearing retainer
steel shim gasket
paper gasket (formerly rubber asbestos per manual)
housing flange
studs

1. Rearend housing
2. Beaded steel gasket (bead against housing)
3. Brake backing plate
4. Foam gasket
5. 5 hole bearing retainer (captive on axle)
6. Nuts
