Abstract
A sealing system includes a shaft seal plate, a seal guide having a tab, and a shaft seal coupled to the seal guide. A guide slot is formed in the shaft seal plate, and the tab extends into the guide slot. The shaft seal is configured to form and substantially maintain a seal at an axle bar as the axle bar rotates and pivots. The seal guide is configured to translate relative to the shaft seal plate as the axle bar pivots, and the tab is configured to block a rotation of the seal guide and the shaft seal relative to the shaft seal plate as the axle bar rotates.
