Axle hub oil leak
by cougar » Mon Apr 25, 2011 7:20 am
I have oil leaking from a strange place on the rear differential. It is leaking from between the drum and the hub flange it attaches to. Had them leak from the lip seal and the gasket on the drive axle flange, but never there. Cracked?
RIP 91.5 W250 5 speed. The great experiment.

It's possible. Have you checked the vent to make sure it's not plugged?
