Front Axel Leaking
My Dana 60 is leaking around the what looks like the 4wd actuator (closer to the passenger side of the truck) where is bolt's to the axle itself. Is there a gasket for this? I looked online at some local parts houses and didn't turn anything up. It just started leaking after the truck sit for about 2 months.
Or should i just use some black RTV and roll on? And is there anything i need to be careful with when removing the actuator itself to repair this?

I couldn't find a gasket for it. I am sure the dealer probably has one for it. But i would think draining the front end and cleaning it up really well. Then some black RTV would seal it up just fine. I still haven't got around to doing it yet. I was waiting to see if someone had fixed this before.

The gasket comes with the CAD replacement part. It also has all the retainer rings for the CAD itself. I think the whole thing is about $100 and well worth it....
