Default How do I set up my axles?

I have a set of Moser 31 spline axles that go with my 9"rear. I am wondering how I go about setting them up with the bearings, backing plates, seals, and such. What order do they go in? How should I go about doing it? I made a small diagram to help out. Thanks in advance for any help!

Seal goes in the end of the housing.....then the backing plate (1st), bearing, press ring goes on the axles.

Any specific instructions for installing the seals? Just tap them in place? Put some axle grease behind and in front of them? Should I put gear oil on the bearing before I slide the axle in??
Thanks in advance.

Nope just tape it on the outer edges until it is flush with the housing. Axle Grease is not necessary. No need to put any oil on the bearings either. Make sure when you press the bearings on that the o-ring is on the outer edge.
