Default front hub leaking on 05 scrambler

i noticed about a weak ago both front hubs were leaking on my scrambler at the seals behind the rotor. i bought both from the dealer and when i went to change the i saw that the nut holding the hubs on were both loose (not even finger tight) from the factory. so i figured this would be the problem. i check all of the bearing races for any where and i couldn't see any sine of it. i put it all back together and took it for a ride around the yard and everything seemed fine. i went out riding yesterday and about a half hour ito the ride the left hub was leaking again. does anyone have any idea of what i should try now?

If the bolt is to loose this will cause the seals to leak..If they were that loose you may have damaged one of the seals...If it were mine if would change the seal ...

i'm sorry i probably didn't explain it that well i changed both seals while it was apart and the left was still leaking afterward. thats why i am wondering if there is something else.

there are two front seals on each side..one is the hub seal part # 3610019 and the other is the strut hub seal part # 3610028..Did you change both of these???? I always change them in pairs and be sure you put a light coating of grease on them before reassembly..make sure there are no in and out movement when you adjust the axle bolt..the least play will normally cause leakage.....sure hope this helps with your problem...RIDE HARD-RIDE SAFE...GO STEELERS!!!!!!!!!!
