Re: Rear Axle Q

I know how it feels.
Anyway. Before you get rolling, unscrew the breather an clean it out. They tend to corrode shut and the air can not escape the rear axle housing as it warms up forcing the oil past the seal. Many times there is no further repair needed unless the e-brake shoes are full of oil already or the diff is making noises.

Have a save trip.
