I got out of the X and smelled gear oil, so I crawled underneth and noticed the front diff pinion seal is leaking. has anyone else had to fix this?? Is the job as straightforward as removing the driveshaft, the yoke, then simply replacing the oil seal, or are crush collars and shims involved?? thanks for any help!!
