    Default Leaking Axle Tube

    I have a winters quick change rear end that has a leaky axle tube. Is there a seal I can install from the outside of the axle tube that will keep it from leaking? Please list the part number because I have searched but cannot find it. All the seals I have found require the rear end to be disassembled and installed from the center.

    All the Seals It type seals I'm aware of go in from the center section. First check the obvious thing. Is the leaky fluid rear end gear lube or bearing grease? If rear end lube make sure you're not overfilled. If grease put in a new hub seal using 3M Gorilla Snot weatherstrip adhesive, yellow preferred. Let it dry well before using the rear end. And wear gloves cause that stuff's a bear to get off your hands.

    Just take the side bell off and look at the seal to the spool. If you have a low drag seal they leak sometimes . And make sure to look at the spool to make sure the seal has not cut a groove init letting the oil leak out . I have some photos of this on my facebook page
