Front Differential Leak Arctic Cat 2002 500
Can someone please give me some help. I have an 2002 arctic cat 500 4x4. I moved the handle bar up about one inch for better steering control. The first time I took it out for a ride, I noticed later that I had a leak on the right side front axle seal. I then added gear oil to the front diff. but have'nt replaced the seal. I noticed fresh puddle of gear oil on my garge floor a few days later after a short ride. I continued to add gear oil before every ride and noticed that it leaked out after every ride. Should i replace the seal? I have 1000 miles on my odometer and have not adjusted or tightened any front end suspension parts since I bought it new in 2003 off the showroom floor. Could my negligence of not tightening the front end cause this? I immediately moved my handle bars back down to the original position upon noticing the first leak. Please help!!!!! Thanks

ive replaced both front diff. seals. its easy. took about 30 min. per side. id replace it. i have 3500 miles on mine replaced them at 3200 for the first time. if you ride mud, sand ,ect... it will wear out quicker. i need to do the rear now cuz they are leaking. if you need assistance let me know.
