Jan. 19, 2005 31,470.5 Signs of oil leaking around pinion seal, again. Cleaned off front of rear diff and drove to Gilroy and back (about 89 miles). A small trickle was on the bottom of the diff, behind the pinion seal, about an inch long and 1/8-inch wide. Pulled the plug and got a slight trickle out of the filler hole. Elevated the left rear until trickle stops out of filler hole. Add 35cc of rear diff fluid. |
