So after 37k miles my rear differential seal started leaking. Diff oil changed every engine oil change. Heading to WY BDR in four weeks.
I’ve ordered a new seal from two different vendors just to make sure it’s here on time.
But I was wondering why would it start leaking already.
So I tried unscrewing the breather to see if it’s plugged up. DONT DO THAT!
It’s pressed in and you just break the weld off the top cap.
But with that being said, I was surprised that there is no filtration in the breather; it’s just a hole.
Anyone had a similar experience?
