12 bolt install ?
I got the Moser 12 bolt with the TCS rings pressed in already. But what i cant figure out it how to intstall the axles properly. The order of parts on the axle from the studs in go as follows. backin plate, bearing, bearing press ring. Is that all? What about the metal and rubber grommit thing thats supposed to keep the fluid from coming out? is what i have dont all i need? Can someone give me a detailed instalation of them. Thanks!

If you're still installing, you need to add that gold thingy with the spring loaded grommet into the axle before you put the axle in the housing. YOu will need a oversized press of some kind to hammer it in. I used a huge conduit connector (like 2" diameter" that let me hammer that thing in.
Or just call Moser, they are REALLY helpful on the phone.

The order you stated is correct. Make sure and put the bearings on the right way, the o-ring on the bearing faces towards the outside (I think) , they state it in the instructions so read it since if they go on the wrong way they will fail.
The seal goes in the axle tube, you will need something big and round to beat it in with. That seal isnt super critical, the bearing itself is sealed (just like your front wheel bearings) but they give you the extra seal to lower the chances of any leaks.
