Glad to hear that Joel !!! :biggthumpup:
That gasket shoud have been on the outside of the backing plate between the bearings and the wheel mounting surface, but should not cause any issues if left out !!! :xyxthumbs:
I just got my "new" axles installed last night and this morning should be on the road this weekend ... :chili:

he had it between the backing plate and the axle housing. with it like this the bearing would have had to go through it to seat in the housing. I never touched a 9" so I was going by how he said
it went. it would be the inner axle retainer plate gasket

Yeah it's weird. I put it back on where the old ones came off from (that inner axle seal in the picture), but I never thought to check if it would fit over the bearing. I'd still like to know what the purpose of that seal is anyway.

Joel I think that piece was supposed to be on the axle before the bearing was pressed on. Im not sure though.
