When you put in the new axle seal, if you push it in just a hair past flush, instead of leaving 1/8" sticking out, will that cause a problem?

As long as it's properly seated, it shouldn't be an issue. Watch for leakage after you get everything back together and your tranny fluid topped up.

reason I ask....I just put one in and didn't let it stick out at all. I got it back together and it still leaks. I have heard that people have lots of probs with this. Any tips?

Not sure, yank it out and re-install, or get another new one and re-install. Don't jam it in, it should just simply snap into place once you get it lined up properly.

Make sure you didn't ruin the seal when you put the axles in. becareful not to cut or pop out the ring.
