OK so I've replaced the rear axle seal on my 2000 big bear twice now, and it insists on leaking. I've turned the seal both ways, and the second time it felt like a better fit, which led me to believe I had it in backwards the first time. But I just pulled it out of the garage to do some yard work to find that its leaking yet again. The only thing I can find wrong with the housing is a couple of superficial grooves where it looks like someone pried the first seal out. I don't know what to do and its about to drive me nuts. Any ideas?

 

Anyone?
