Good call. Took off banjo and completely blocked. Took out short shaft and no rust. The inside of the axle tube on the breather side has a lot of rust on it. Also had to order 2 new stub axles because of scoring and pitting. Turning out a bit expensive this oil seal.:(

Prop uj,s?

let us know what you think about it in a while.

I dont go on very long trips to be fair. Average 15km daily with the occasional 60km fishing trip. I,ll check the breather for blockages or tightness. I,ll know more when i pull the other drive shaft and see if that has rust. Thanks for your inputs lads and i,ll update when ive had a look.

That's the clear I can work in.:rolleyes:

I'll check em. Used every day so should have plenty oil splashing about.

Calm yourself down , but I do have a shaft like steel. :D

Yes, I went to top it up the other day and it was only an eggcupful down.

Any ideas why this is happening? Never been wading and hub caps in place.

Any photos as is?

Great job.

I wouldnt have thought it maters. Same as a light bulb?

Opened the bonnet to check voltage to glow plugs. Too f##king hot to be messing with it so walked away

Put a test lamp on the glow plug lead and it didn't go out while engine was running. Might just disconnect the feed. Don't really need them at the moment.
