  • Re: oil leak

    The mechanical oil seal, seals the aluminum transfer case on its OD and the OD of the rotating hardened spacer behind the pulley. Nothing more! It doesn't seal the shaft. The small O-ring (1/2mm) seals the OD of the middle shaft or the ID of the spacer. If the front pulley is loose your leak more...
