the outer seal is only a grease in and dirt out seal, there shouldn't be any oil in there. How much play is there in your wheel brgs.

will be ur inner seal matey. very easy to damage when putting axle back into diff housing. for oil to be on ur pads it has to get past ur inners first so these must be the culprit. check ur axles as they may be slightly worn and need a speedy sleeve. also check ur breather hose for obstruction, forcing oil past ur seals.

speedy sleve

Post by amazoniandad »

The speedy sleve is a press on hollow sleeve that brings the old axle back to the original or slightly bigger diamitor. If there is a groove worn in the axle from the seal, the sleeve gives the seal a new serface to run on and seal teh oil in the diff. Hope this helps
Regards
Stephen
