- 03 Explorer 4.6 AWD
Hello, I am new to the forum and have a question. I have a 2003 Explorer 4.6L V8 AWD. While changing the oil I decided to check everything out under my explorer and noticed the rear differential was seeping fluid around where the cv axle enters the differential on the drivers side. I park my explorer on clean concrete every night and it has never dripped at all. It seems to be very slow seepage and my mechanic checked the level of fluid and it was full. I went ahead and bought a new seal from Ford. My question is should I go ahead and fix it or wait till it starts dripping? Also can anyone give me detailed instructions of how to replace the seal? Thank you so much.
