I've done two banjos so far and one thing I seem to have found out is that if the gasket ID is tight on the lip of the axle housings, put a few alignment pins in the banjo and shellac the gasket(s) to the banjo housing. Once the shellac sets up, use a razor knife to trim the gasket ID to match that of the banjo ID. When you assemble the axle housings, you won't ruin the gaskets. (Maybe everyone else knows that or maybe I'm doing things wrong...)
