Check ya diff oil level, and remember that oil is leaking on to your tyre - oil + tyre = oh shit!!!. If you are careful, yeah might be alright, bet do it ASAP. It is a really easy job to change, and cheap as chips too. (as long as bearing is okay.

if you were doing it yourself here is a hint for the brake shoes..

use thinners in a squirt bottle (we use a large locktight bottle) and squirt it onto the shoes then imediatly blow off with compressed air...

works better than brake cleaner. :armsup:

normally when the seal goes it is because the bearing is also ready to go .. Change both and be done with it
