REAR END DRIPPING
#1
LOL...Hey guys ,just changed bearings in the rear axle of the magnum.Had to take it all apart to do it.Iordered and replaced all the triple lip seals.The o rings all seemed good.It seemed to weep slightly on the floor[VERY SLIGHTLY OVER A LONG TIME].The kid drove it 40 -50 miles when we went riding last weekend .The oil got real low,had to refill it.When i got it home i washed it ,took off the skid plate,cleaned up the housing,placed a peice of tin under it to identify where it is leaking.
NOTHING ...iT STOPPED AND STILL HAS PLENTY OF OIL IN IT.Iguess the question i got is does it sometimes take a while for the new seals to get conditioned?It went togeather good,dont know where i could of done wrong.Ieven smeared a little grease on the o rings.What now?

Can seep at bottom drain plug around threads,Leave skid plate off run until warm,place back over cardboard,recheck. If seeping there,can use liquid teflon around plug like factory does to seal. Good luck
