Front Diff. Help after 2 inch lift.

Iwanna4x4 · 06-26-2009, 08:01 PM

alright i just added a 2 inch coil spacer lift to my 95 2 door tracker, and now the front diff leaks oil from where the axle goes into it. as shown in the pictures. it is on the passenger side. While i was doing the lift the axle slid out, and put it back and everything went back fine but now it leaks oil. i locked the hubs (manual) and everything locks up 4wd works fine. If anyone knows whats wrong or how to fix it please let me know your help is appreciated

heres the pic of the leaking spot

and heres some of the tracker with the new lift.

lol, mine does the SAME thing. Same spot too, but with 1.5" spacer. Mine only leaks when hubs are locked. So, I leave them unlocked and after using 4x4 i add a cup of gear oil to the front end thru the pretture tube located under the hood =D Works good enough for me!

If mine only leaked in 4x4 that wouldn't be too bad but she leaks all the time leaving little puddles of gear oil all around the house. Mine also has the 1.5 spacer in the front and 2 inch in the rear

Replace the seal, it obviously didn't like being disturbed.

That stinks, sounds like you broke the seal when the axil fell out. Replace the seal and it should be good. You should bea pro when your done..lol

The Kick looks cool, what size tires are those?
