Was pulling out the new Stebro Dual that was temporarily hanging with zip ties and noticed a "too large" glob of gear oil. Seeing that the old girl had been at rest seemed like too much to ignore. The obvious culprit is the pinion seal but the right and left inner axle seals likely contribute also (probably the rear cover seal too!)
The query is this.............can the pinion seal be changed without pulling the diffy? Looks like the inner axle seal housings can be unbolted while in place but not sure about the pinion seal.
Would like to fix the obvious leaks the "easy" way. If it comes out then a rebuild and body mount mod would be in order (needless to say longer, harder, more green stamps).
Can I cheat?
