[QUOTE="wd2011, post: 49562, member: 5900"] I just finished all 4 axles with bearings, races, seals, even had to go with one new axle, sprocket, and hub assembly. I thought I was all done, and got everything covered up. I filled up the chaincase and the next morning I have a pool of oil on the floor. It is leaking all the way down the belly. I am suspecting the drive motor carrier seals to the chaincase to be shot, which I should have expected beforehand. I don't want to invest in rebuilding the drive motors at this point since I am not having problems out of them. And correct me if I am wrong, I shouldn't have to pull the motor carriers when the motors fail in the future? My question though, since I essentially will be taking the motor assembly apart to get the carriers out are there any obvious parts I should go ahead and plan to replace, except for the front axle seals that I will have to replace again to drop the front chains? I was thinking more like seals that are easily accessible while getting at the motor carrier. Any info and or advice would be much appreciated. Thanks again! [/QUOTE]
