Fixing Axle Leak

MoparLeo your completely right if you are going to open it up, you should have that service manual and follow it. It's technically enough you can mess things up without it. But as George jets said I think he calls out something that can be done and wouldn't need to disassemble the rear end.
If it continues to drip you haven't lost anything.
If it stops, you could maybe check it periodically.
Just a thought.

I agree with what you and the other guys say also.

I stated what I did to the diff in my 72 duster and I’m glad I did. When I pulled the diff out and was inspecting the suregrip, I found out that the center pin was enlarging the holes in the diff and was going to be short lived with the 400hp 340 / 4 speed with sticky street tires that I put on the car. As for the U joint part I said, I learned my lesson that my father told me when I was a kid and did not heed, to do when getting a new to me ride. I’ll tell ya losing a u joint suck and totally messed up the under side of the floor boards of my 02 Ram. Just cheap insurance from the peanut gallery... to each there own...
