As you can see I have what appears to be a hub leaking. So do I replace the hub or seal? I am also hoping this takes care of my good friends the three amigos.

 

Get a Jeep.

 

That's what my wife says, but I am leaning toward the $0.95 seal.

 

Lol.....seal it is then.
And you still have some coin left over for some beers and a bottle of jack.

 

Is it your DD? Get a jeep. Is it a toy? Fix it and move on. I'm in the process of looking for a TJ wrangler to daily drive and let the Disco be a weekend toy.

 

It was my daily driver but now is my toy. Bought my wife a vehicle last weekend and I got her Toyota camry. My jeep comment is all in fun. I will probably do the seal but my only concern is my three amigos. Did the shuttle valve replacement and hoping that fixes it. The abs port in the hub was covered in oil and wonder if that would cause the three amigos.

 

Hard to tell from the photos whether front or rear hub but about the same amount of work whatever. The rear is an O ring and the front is a seal but as a guess the front is slightly more difficult. It's about a 3 hour job and a few cents for front or rear seals. Also check your axle breathers aren't blocked otherwise you're wasting your time.

 

In mine I had to retorque the axle but to something in the 300 ft lb range to get the rear axle sealed.

 

Sorry, I guess I did not give the location. It is the rear passenger. Does not appear to be a difficult job.

 

300 ft lbs? I don't think most wrenches go that high. I will keep this know mind.
