Hi,
After a 400 mile round trip yesterday my front diff has sprung a leak.
It is leaking from the o/s drive shaft seal, however on closer inspection there appears to be some lift/wiggle where the drive shaft goes into the axle, can I assume there is wear in the supporting bearing and has caused the leak?
The otherside (the end with the long tube) has the same amount of wiggle but is totally dry.
Has anyone ever tackled the job and can the bearings and seals be changed in situ or will it be an axle out job?
Thanks in advance.
