Diff Unit Leaking Oil
Posted: Thu Dec 05, 2013 8:57 pm
This is not an uncommon problem, but want some advice on what to do when I get it out and on the bench. This car (26/4004) has had no major service done since it was sold new in 1965. It has 84k miles on the clock and that is reasonably accurate based on the known history. Was planning to replace input shaft oil seal, two output shaft oil seals, and diff housing gasket. What about replacing the bearings? (pinion, output shafts, prop shaft)
I have a workshop manual and the Buckland book. What are the potential issues with taking on this task? Thanks
