Both differentials on my LR are leaking where the shaft goes into the case. I know there's seals here that need replacing, but I don't know what they're called or where to find them.

I also need to do both seals at the rear wheels-- diff fluid is leaking out and coating the brakes with fluid, and when I'm hard on the brakes, I can smell the fluid cooking.

I prefer to source parts at RockAuto Parts Catalog, they have several driveline seals, but they go by different names, and I'm not sure if they're the correct ones. Does anyone have any links / pictures of these seals that would help me in determining if I'm ordering the correct ones? Any info or help would be much appreciated.

 

On the two diffs, back and front, there are pinion seals they are both the same size and type OEM Corteco are very good. On the rear axle there is an 'O' ring seal each side that lets by sooner or later it's cheap to buy but takes awhile to pull the hubs to replace the 'O' rings. I believe Colorado David did this recently.

On the transfer box there are seals at the front and rear output shafts which require the output flanges to be removed to fit new seals. Both the seals are the same which are OEM Corteco make. On the rear output shaft you will need to remove the handbrake drum to access the output flange. Don't forget to order the stake nuts for the axle x2 and the new nuts and felt washers x2 for the transfer box output shafts. Have fun

PS. You will need a good quality torque wrench for tightening the nuts to the correct torque settings on re-assembly and also the correct socket sizes for the various nuts of which the staked nuts are 32mm can't remember what the diff and output shaft nut sizes are. All of these nuts are extremely tight and will require some brute force to undo so best use 6 sided impact sockets not 12 point sockets.
